Top 10 Must Have Apps/Widgets

[kubicle]

have the python modules been split from ufw package recently

Answering myself, in "ufw" version 0.32 python2 modules were split to "python-ufw" package

I have to say that there are many more than 10 additional apps/widgets that I must install because I use them regularly, and because my partner and a couple of friends also use my desktop regularly (of course with their own user/or guest accounts). Here are the top ones for me:

Multimedia & Graphics
cheese, clementine, devede, digikam, gimp, kaffeine, vlc

Office & Internet
amsn, firefox, google-chrome, kompozer, kontact, krecipes, libreoffice, tellico, thunderbird,

System & Desktop
firestarter, hplip-gui & xsane, lm-sensors, mysql workbench, nvidia, smooth-tasks, synaptic, virtualbox, wine

I also install many debug packages and the packages to build from source (build-essentials, cmake, etc.) for various apps because I love trying out the latest stable/beta/alpha versions of most software

Revisiting this thread briefly, Steve, which "owncloud" are you referring to www.owncloud.org or www.owncloud.com?

www.owncloud.com is the cermercial side of www.owncloud.org so you can download it from .org and host it your self, or buy support for it from .com (both the sites also link to each other).

I've tried OwnCloud 3.0.0, 3.0.2, 4.0.0, 4.0.1, 4.0.4, and 4.0.6 from owncloud.org. While it has shown continual improvement, it still exhibits a bit of fragility at times. In 4.0.4, repeating calendar entries sometimes appear to span multiple days when viewed via the web interface, but the underlying data doesn't have any problems, and the same calendar entries appear fine in KOrganizer and on my phone. In 4.0.6, the browser window refreshes twice after each login. These are just a couple oddities.

I think most OC development occurs on CentOS, so I wonder whether some of the kinks have to do with minor differences in Apache and PHP on Ubuntu. I'm not sure, really. I hope verison 5 bumps up the reliability, because I'd really like to to use this thing.

James, Steve, thanks for the info. I am not really bothered by the Calender bugs. I use Google calendar for the rare time I need to set reminders. All I need for cloud storage, is well storage. I mostly use it for small tasks like if I download an android apk on my desktop and need to get it to my phone, keepass database, and other small things, but I do still want it to be secure.
