We had a few issues this week, that needed a bit of work by some of the members. The main issue was with Libreoffice, parts of it were in the repositories and available for update, before all the packages had finished building. There was a solution offered:
sudo mkdir /usr/lib/libreoffice/basis3.4/program/
Then run:
sudo apt-get -f install
The rest of us waited until all the packages had been built before updating.
The other major event, was the release of Unity 5 to a ppa for testing. Many of us ran the checkbox application, in oder to test Unity properly, and report any problems to the developers
There is an ongoing thread concerning the ability to customize Unity, and what applications will be installed by default to allows us to set things up the way we like.
