How does one use or apply this fix? AIUI this is the same problem described here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/287797/xserver-xorg-lts-quantal-will-remove-many-packages
I have installed the xserver-xorg-lts-precise metapackage but this has not installed anything else as I am currently running the Precise X stack. The above seems not to be a fix. AFAICS, what it does is conveniently allow one to /recover/ from the problem -- it does not prevent the installation of the Quantal X stack from removing loads of necessary components, it just makes it easier to revert back from the Quantal X stack to the Precise X stack. Do I understand correctly? If so, it is not a fix. It does not enable one to upgrade an installed 12.04 or 12.04-1 system to 12.04-2, i.e. install the 12.10 versions of X.org. /That/ is the bug that is really being reported here AIUI. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1095686 Title: xorg needs to be updated to allow quantal xserver stack to be installed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/oem-priority/+bug/1095686/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
