[Bug 243410] Re: Inkblot Doesn't work for Ubuntu 8.04

[Bruce R]

@Dave R

Unfortunately, Launchpad isn't 'my' database. If it were I would manage it 
differently,
with clearer delineations between versions of Ubuntu, rather than allowing 
different
version reports to confuse and confound effective solution finding !
Your comment about libinklevel and inkblot working with an earlier version 
is a good
example of re-compilation for a different kernel and core interfaces 
producing different
results, whilst I have found that mencoder only works properly in its Ubuntu 
7.10 or
LinuxMint-4 guise.
To experience and share some of my past frustrations, I would suggest that 
you raise
a new Bug Report against Ubuntu 9.04, which despite rather arbitrary LTS 
declarations
seems to be the most stable and reliable version since Ubuntu 7.10
A simple, unambiguous report title can help, but beware of rather arbitrary, 
'timescales are
sacrosanct' rulings that deflect you from obtaining a satisfactory outcome 
as there's a very
strong culture of creating the illusion of progress by not tackling awkward 
problems !

Good luck - Bruce R
