default DE requalification: quality of task
Hi!
In the default desktop environment requalification table, I think gnome's
score for "task quality" should be downgraded -- although it might be better
to axe the whole category.
There are two criteria listed:
* quality: task-gnome has the distinction of being the only desktop task
with a severe bug. Installing a non-working desktop on all but two
architectures (or at least a good part of machines for those
architectures) counts as "pretty bad" in my book...
* testing: as XFCE was the default for most of jessie's development, no one
noticed what dropping of gnome-fallback really means, until recently.
So, I'd say the correct score would be -1 rather than +1...
However, I kind of fail to see the point of giving two whole points for
something as minor as the tasksel task. It's just a link to the DE's
primary metapackage plus a few goodies -- nothing as important as complete
translations, etc. So what about removing this line instead of arguing?
Meow!
