Alpha2 - Planned Changes
We consider what will be in the upcoming Ubuntu release when selecting our default programs. Since our release and Ubuntu share many of the same programs, the changes listed on the Ubuntu Testing website will be repeated here.

The changes below will NOT include:

  • New versions of a program already in the current release of LFC (ex.- Firefox updating from v2 to v3)
  • Rewrites of a program already in the current release of LFC (ex. - VLC will be made with QT instead of wxPython)
  • Kernel upgrades
  • Old Package Change New Package
    gnome-btdownload replaced Transmission
    xvnc4viewer replaced Vinagre
    Alsa/ESD Sound Systems replaced PulseAudio
    DICOM (medical imaging) compatibility added medcon, xmedcon, libmdc2, libniftiio2, amide, libdcmtk1, dicomnifti, nifti-bin, minc-tools
    Debian-Med Content Management System added cms-med, cdd-common, med-config, med-tasks, menu (may omit this one in a remixed version of this package since I hate it so much!)
    cli-common removed -
