Lubuntu Desktop

[Julien Lavergne]

The "massive" diff is the add of common desktop packages, used by all
flavors :
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/ubuntu-seeds/platform.precise/view/head:/desktop-common
<http://bazaar.launchpad.net/%7Eubuntu-core-dev/ubuntu-seeds/platform.precise/view/head:/desktop-common>

Except cups (which is a recommend) I can't see anything problematic.
Most of them are stuff that IMO common users should not have to deal with.

Regards,
Julien Lavergne
