It's very hard to give all the guarantees required when you're not a distribution integrator. I recall this has been discussed before. Some random seach hits: <a href="http://lists.freedesktop.org/pipermail/xdg/2015-June/013517.html">http://lists.freedesktop.org/pipermail/xdg/2015-June/013517.html</a> <a href="http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xdg/2012-December/012593.html">http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xdg/2012-December/012593.html</a> But the email I was actually looking for is: <a href="http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/wayland-devel/2012-June/003935.html">http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/wayland-devel/2012-June/003935.html</a> It has been thought about before, and concluded that it is best to not try to make up some replacement that may or may not work correctly. I would be tempted to close this as WONTFIX, but let's see if there are better ideas today.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
