We definitely need reports on such 'odd' (i.e. not US ASCII...) character set issues, i18n issues etc - can you double-check it and file the issue if it's reproducible? Thanks.
option in Gnome menu.
That is a, ahem, policy decision.
Hi, Adam,
Could you say some more about the policy decision or point to a msg or whatever. Need to understand what is going on.
It was discussed during the Test Day. I don't have a web reference for this exact issue, but the position of the design team is that they think the only common use case for rebooting is to boot into a different operating system in a multi-boot configuration, and they want to handle that as a special case somehow (a direct 'reboot to Windows' option has been suggested). They don't believe there are any sufficiently common use cases for rebooting other than that one to justify the added complexity of providing it as an option. (Desktop team, please correct me if I'm representing this wrong).
We still have to reboot to use a newly installed kernel. Isn't that a valid enough use case for this? Aren't there other kinds of updates that mandate a reboot as well?
gnome-packagekit has several strings referring to restart being needed after updating system packages...
Cheers Kjartan
