Holger, Thanks for your helpful replies.Can we keep this bug report open, as a way of tracking this issue in the period before Wheezy release?
While I understand that the debate has passed and it's probably too late to get the radical changes the OP requested, perhaps there's still some wiggle-room. Personally I agree with the OP: space-fun is OK as a demo of the new gnome features, but it's unprofessional looking and not suitable for a general release.
I've decided that, unfortunately, I can't win that argument.So I'm taking this opportunity to hope and pray for some kind of "theme" capability in the new Wheezy desktops that allows us old fuddy- duddy types to at least get something more to our liking after the fact of installation. Is there some place we (members of the fuddy- duddy party) can make our voices heard where it will do some good?
I've just subscribed to "debian-desktop"; is that the best place? Are there other places as well?
Enjoy! Rick On Jun 18, 2012, at 10:43 AM, Holger Levsen wrote:
