That is something completely different, since 1. Ubuntu has a huge users base and provides quite good support, e.g. by mailing lists. Mint doesn't. 2. Take a look at the Debian tracker, for example https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/ardour on the right side the Ubuntu link is available, Debian and Ubuntu do cooperate. There is no direct cooperation with Mint. 3. Ubuntu takes over responsibility, for example https://usn.ubuntu.com/ Note, I'm an Arch Linux user. I'm an advocate of official Ubuntu flavours, because Ubuntu IMO is a really good trade-off for those who need a helping hand. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
