Thanks for your report. The removal of xchat from Ubuntu was an extremely deliberate decision, and the advantages and disadvantages were debated at length by the development team. I feel sure that the points you mention were included in that debate.
I'm afraid this isn't a bug, but rather a feature. |

I'm re-opening this, because I'd really like to here from some of the developers or packagers about leaving XChat or XChat-Gnome out of Dapper.
I've just spent a couple of hours using Gaim in Dapper Beta (LiveCD) and for basic IRC it has a fairly bad UI, and seems worse than XChat-Gnome would be.
Having all the options & menus spread over several windows (three, usually) isn't very useful; it's difficult to find a basic channel listing, and while I'm not a great fan of XChat-Gnome, isn't an app that's actually designed for IRC better than one that tries to do everything? |

I say y'all stop whining. If you want Xchat, you can install it. Gaim does IRC fine enough for use (it's all I use, actually), and it's a fine base client for those that don't use IRC often (whom Ubuntu is targetting AFAIK).
We're not removing it completely, folks, just not installing it by default. Since this has been discussed by the development team already, I'm closing this. If anyone wants to hear from the devs, check the recent thread on ubuntu-devel, and if anyone has any useful (i.e. not redundant) points to make, go ahead and reopen this. |
