I always wondered why it's so hard to install additional programs on Ubuntu. For example to play mp3 need some codecs to be downloaded on the internet (thank God I've ubuntu can play mp3). Actually this is where problems begin to emerge, most people in Indonesia (including me) do not yet have sufficient bandwidth.

To get an internet connection, must go to the cafe. And difficult to get the repository. Return to the original problem, which is why when installing the program requires libxxxx? The master linux (weleh) named by the term dependency (mutual dependence), for example when you want to install amarok program, you should look for libraries libxxx. And the new Amarok can be installed when there is no dependency alias is a dead end, because most codecs will also need other codecs. Hmmm, dizziness is also yes, pake dendensi all.

Ubuntu, as the most popular Linux distributions today (distrowacth), also can not escape the problem of dependency. Ubuntu is a Linux distribution oriented desktop usage, so by default only includes applications such as OpenOffice, Mozilla Firefox, GIMP, Evolution.

Ubuntu is developed with a base and the philosophy of freedom and free software, so all the software that is included must be licensed Lisence General Public (GPL). This philosophy makes the package that is included in the Ubuntu CD is very limited. Discomfort in the dependency is hard to install. For those who have an internet connection is adequate, it was slightly offset by the existence of such mirror2 ui goat or ITS. But for those still stuck in offline mode, out of internet connection, this is very difficult when I have to install codecs one by one. And some of the advantages of using dependency is:

1. Application program size smaller, because librarynya separately.

2. Save hardisk

3. released problems

4. etc.

something like that is why Ubuntu difficult dimasukki new program. Ubuntu is developed by everyone, so all should be complementary. That should be human. Krtika differences can complement each other. So, do not be negative thinkin 'first ubuntu ma ya ..!!!
