Updated changelog

I cannot comment much on the validity of depends/patches etc, but the following things occur to me.

• debian added debian/upstream/metadata which you have not merged. Why? If you intended to exclude it, this is not mentioned in the changelog.
• you have not merged the change to depending on debhelper-compat (= 12) and corresponding removal of debian/compat. Again why, and why not mentioned?
• you have not merged some minor changes to debian/copyright which look like they should have been.

1. A nice improvement would be a way to better keep Phab and the archive synced. At the very least, a notification system.
2. A really nice improvement would be a notification system about failed merges.

update changelog

A debdiff between previous and next ubuntu versions is also pretty helpful. Can be used once you build with merge-scripts. Just used that with D73.

@apt-ghetto The new login button actually helps in switching users
Useful in our case as we don't have anything like gdm or kde's lock screen. Sddm currently lacks the ability to switch users.

Updated changelog

Updated version number

Removed unnecessary (extra) translations from debian folder.

Thanks @guiverc for testing, closing this task now.

Clone the master. Create a patch from the PR. Apply it and then build and install from it.

Having the option to enable it in the "Welcome Center" won't be any different from the experience that is provided now. The user will still have to logout/login for the menu etc. to work properly.

From what I can tell ~50M doesn't seem like much to worry about to have such a poor user experience when Snaps are becoming increasingly common:

Bruv 50MB is a considerable amount as compared to our current usage. (>= 10%) I'd say we give the users an option to enable snaps using the "Welcome Center" and let them know that it will cost approx 50MB.

Will do again as per @rikmills 's comment

Someone GTM Thanks!

@kc2bez @guiverc count me in of you need any help.

I thinks that this from bugie is a little overwhelming

Just tested on a clean installation in a vm. I forgot to add xfonts-efont-unicode to rSEED and meta. Someone who is free please do this. I won't be able to do it anytime soon.

Note the changes in latest iso.
