It seems only Arch and openSUSE have 8.0, all of the rest uses v6 or libjpeg-turbo.
Thats correct, mainly due to LSB requirements, which we chose to ignore.
I'm going to recommend that we stop ignoring LSB requirements.
Oh really ? the LSB is non-sense. what good reasons ?
At the risk of repeating myself: This pixbuf loader bug is just one example. The LSB exists to make it possible to run proprietary products on any LSB-compliant linux distro. And despite the tunnel-vision open source enthusiasts sometimes have there are a many important and useful proprietary products out there. When we fail to run some product that someone needs they go to Fedora or Ubuntu because the OS is irrelevant to the vast majority of customers. The only thing that matters is what the customer wants to /do/ with the OS. I realize that in some cases LSB fails to accomplish this goal but in this case it would have succeeded as it does in many cases. If you feel that LSB is failing to accomplish this in some way please step up and help give them constructive suggestions as to how it could be accomplished better. In the real world there will always be proprietary products and /we/ are better off if those products can run smoothly on our favorite distro. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
