Re: zRAM has been removed from Lubuntu 13.10 daily build of 17-Jun

 

Hi,

I really don't like short answers without explanation :)

I did NOT use a wrong ISO. If that so, blame the website, don't blame
the tester. I know you are not blaming, I'm just saying what happened:

I have done this:

1- http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/daily-live/current/
2- downloaded:  saucy-desktop-i386.iso 17-Jun-2013 17:33 687M Desktop
image for PC (Intel x86) computers (standard download)
3- MD5SUM Checked: 61c94f7ff9905400c8bae5a3872fb2c3 *saucy-desktop-i386.iso
4- zsync the ISO after telling Phill about what is going on

And, NO zRAM and NO Firefox!!

How is that suddenly a previous ISO had both zRAM and Firefox and a
latest one as per the website does not?

I am NOT 100% sure but I guess the one I tested the other day was
13-June Image and if it is 13-June Image or not, I'm 100% sure it
wasn't the latest and both zRAM and Firefox was there.

There must be something wrong and obviously, it is not my mistake :D

If you still thinking I'm dreaming, I'd appreciate some LOGICAL
explanation before just closing my bugs without any good reason, IMHO
:D
I could be wrong though but all what I'm asking for is a simple explanation :)

I had 2 very long days with tons of testing, and at the end of the
day, I wouldn't be happy at all when someone come and tell me that I
have picked the wrong ISO while everything refer to it is the latest
one.

IF I picked the wrong one, how is that zsync did not update it?
