- nswanberg 15y agoI was curious about that too. If you listen to the video at 12:26 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?&v=fu3pT_9nb8o#t=746s http://www.youtube.com/watch?&v=fu3pT_9nb8o#t=746s), he has made that up as a reason why a team might not upgrade from Lucid to Precise, not that there is currently any such issue.
- codexon 15y agoI have found at least 3 problems upgrading to Ubuntu 12.04. I have upgraded 4 of my servers and found the following problems. 1. The ia32-libs package uninstalled itself somehow, causing all my 32bit programs to fail start back up if they restarted. 2. @reboot cronjobs ran 2 minutes after the machine booted in kern.log. I accidentally started the programs manually because I thought they wouldn't run. 3. On a fresh install, the byobu network display doesn't show up.
- srparish 15y agoI don't work at google, but my team is in the same boat because of this bug: http://bugs.python.org/issue10394 http://bugs.python.org/issue10394 Moving to python3 wouldn't be too hard, except we have some really complicated cheetah templates, and cheetah apparently has no plans for supporting python3 any time soon.
