●● Breaking: Ubuntu is Dumping Mono, Mono Applications

Posted in GNU/Linux, Mono, Ubuntu at 4:24 pm by Dr. Roy Schestowitz

Summary: Microsoft dependency is being removed from Ubuntu GNU/Linux, based on UDS

Based on a video which is airing right night, Sebastian tells us (in IRC) that “Mono won’t be in the default install of 12.04 [but] still in repos [...] and they will switch back to Rhythmbox as well, so bye bye Mono [...] it was in the UDS video from Orlando at the moment [...] and they were just talking about it in the channel for that as well [...] I think it’s to save space really on the CD [...] and since Rythombox is good enough again now [...] they said it a little while ago in the UDS wrap up [..] and they said how they will get a certain amount of space back [...] and in the UDS channel someone was saying how that means: Tomboy won’t be there as well anymore.” █
