The development team of Ubuntu ha announced at their mailing list that will remove the Windows to Ubuntu Migration Wizard (Wubi) in the next Ubuntu 4.12 update (12.04.1). |
According to its developers, Wubi.exe, the file responsible for running the Ubuntu installation CD on Windows and guiding the user through the installation of the Canonical operating system, has been removed because there is no longer a need to incorporate the package into the Ubuntu installer. , taking into account that Ubuntu has reached a historical market share compared to Windows.
Another relevant point that the developers took into account was the existence of some errors that were in Wubi, especially when running it under Windows 7. Although it has been withdrawn from the standard Ubuntu installation, Wubi.exe will continue to be part of the repositories of the distribution.
For example, my girlfriend's PC and a couple of friends know and use Ubuntu in that way.

Very confident I see these from Canoni $ oft.
An error on his part (for a change), it was a good entry point, it does not matter to me because I have never used it.
Here is another proof that Uncle Mark wants money, how he has to pay the developers, stop developing and charge them.
Heh heh, how easy it is to read that man's mind.
Well, it was not because of you about the votes, what happens is that if you say something against their distro they always screw you.
Spanish and Spanish are the same, at least here in Spain
It's called Castilian, and I'm a Debianite =)
But seriously ... Your comments don't leave anything lowering you to that level. By the way, I did not vote anything. So you don't believe I'm someone who doesn't.
Speak in Spanish, or are you afraid, eh ubuntosete?
Watch out! We have a badass over here!
I already see the ubuntosetes crying in the votes, but on top of that they hide behind a vote without showing their faces.
They give pity
Let's see, the fanboy who gave me the negative vote ...
You don't have what it takes to answer me? Miedito gives you kid
Yes, I think things should be done cleanly, not with Wubi-type nasties, but for users who come in with Winbuntu (which as we know they don't have the slightest idea of Linux) it wasn't bad
without wubi, linux is better
Those mistakes are made with Wubi and without him, is what experience tells me.
You are dumber if you quit Linux for that bullshit.
You miss it
I've never used it, I don't know anyone who has used it and I don't think it's relevant.
Noooooo please, Uff I started with wubi and I love it, it was an impressive idea, to get closer to linux, that way I'll see if I continue with linux even though I really like free software.
All the many people that I know firsthand did it, and all the others that I also know in general.
You. And the others? You know how to handle the boot. Many people do not, and do not feel like reading a guide, much less looking for it. Besides that a Live CD (the USB is another thing ..) does not have any persistence, and perhaps using it like that will not convince people. On the other hand: What problems does Wubi have? I never saw any. It wasn't as fast as a real install when I tested it, but I had no problem, nor did anyone know.
I do not need wubi to start in Ubuntu, it also brings many problems installing with wubi is better direct with the Live CD
What is your reason to say that?
Luckily, everyone who tried ubuntu with wubi thought it was crap, due to its poor performance and frequent errors.
Bad idea, why lose potential users? I hope wubi continues to maintain an independent development
A pity I think. Lots of people boot Ubuntu because of Wubi, in the world of Linux.
Well, it has affected me directly, since I have a hp laptop that already comes with multiple partitions and does not accept more so they screwed my life. I'll look for Mint maybe I can still handle her.
