Oof. Found the swig wrapper, but it appears it has loads of bugs and is being completely rewritten with ctypes instead like I initially planned. So at least I was thinking in the right direction...
@Markus Thanks. Please just suggest an edit to the post next time. We encourage users on this site to improve posts of others rather than posting comments. ;) – gertvdijk Nov 13 at 13:05

We should give 14.04 code names Madiba or Mandela since madiba is the one who formulated Ubuntu and strengthen it's philosophy. What do you think @canonical
Ubuntu ( ; ) is a Nguni Bantu term (literally, "human-ness") roughly translating to "human kindness";
in Southern Africa (South Africa and Zimbabwe), it has come to be used as a term for a kind of humanist philosophy, ethic or ideology, also known as Ubuntuism or Hunhuism (the latter after the corresponding Shona term) propagated in the Africanization (transition to majority rule) process of these countries during the 1980s and 1990s.
Since the transition to democracy in South Africa with the Nelson Mandela presidency in 1994, the term has become more widely known outside of Southern Af...
You can see the deep relation between Ubuntu and Madiba. If Madiba doesn't exist, There is NO Ubuntu and its philosophy. don't you think?
I have bash script aaa.sh that runs fine from current directory. But if I try to run using full path /home/vik/Projects/updd/aaa.sh, system tells No such file or directory. What might be wrong?
Once I reach level 90, where do I upgrade my flying skill so that I am able to fly over the island of Pandaria?
Is it possible to learn how to fly over Pandaria before I get to level 90 or is this restricted to max level characters only?
when I come across a post that only needs "thanks" removing, I will remove thanks and submit it
half of the time it will get rejected as too minor, even though there are no other faults with the post
half of the time it will get accepted
*shrug*
@Braiam you should keep in mind that I deleted my stack exchange account, otherwise I'd have over 5000 edits on Arqade, over 2000 edits on movies & tv, etc etc
I am well versed in editing
also, never delete your SE account, there is so much stuff removed that you can never get back
all I'm trying to do is get to 3k rep, so I can provide an additional source of close votes and another reviewer
It would be nice to get to 20k for delete votes, but I accept that on a site such as... well, every one of them, I don't know enough about the subject matter to provide enough content to generate that kind of rep
so you'll have to do the deleting
but 3k should be doable, considering I'll get 1k rep from edits
I'm sure there will be a bunch of easy questions pop up during the time it takes me to max out suggested edit rep that I can answer

Recently in chat we noticed some kind of oddity about the whole 12.10 > 13.04 > 13.10 upgrade path, where Raring will reach EOL before Quantal and how that will play out for us and for the users upgrading. Here is the response:
While raring with be EOL and stop receiving updates before quanta...
some keyboard layouts has the @ there... maybe you have spanish (spain) or something weird... there are differencies between the LA, the Int and the Spain keyboard layouts...
@Lucio wrong, they're perfectly valid, if the only thing that is wrong with the post is the chatty ending, the chatty ending is perfectly valid to edit out
@Lucio please be more consistent with your approval of edits, "Thanks" in posts is well discussed on meta.stackoverflow.com and should be removed. If I provide an edit to an otherwise perfectly fine post, only removing "thanks", rejecting it is against the overall community consensus as determined on MSO
If there is anything else wrong with the post, I fix that in addition to removing "thanks".
Now stop wasting my effort with your misapplication of agreed community consensus

I edit a lot of posts every day. I often run across posts with 'Hi' and 'Thanks' on the top and the bottom of the post respectively. I also run across things like:
--User
Should these items be removed during the editing of the post by an editor?
I recently upgraded ubuntu13.04 to 13.10 by using sudo apt-get update and then by typing do-release-upgrade -d.
How to get 13.10 .iso file from my system, so I can install it in another system?
@Braiam that whole upgrade path stuff hasn't changed though, ultimately. And there was already ML discussion about not removing R from the mirrors until Q actually EOL'd. (However they wouldn't accept new updates for R)... having said this why is your findings in meta?
@Seth no, not unless the asker revises his question to be clear what he's asking about
@Seth I'm still not entirely convinced. Their comments repeatedly talk about installing more than cloning. Anyway, I've massacred the question now. It still means roughly the same thing. Roughly.
the person asked about Chromiun, not how to install chrome....wow..what a waste.............................................................................................................................................................................................................................
There's no simple solution to this - its probably going to be a long and annoying road to getting everything moved. I'd start with a few things, but the book I recommended in the comments likely goes into a few details. I see four main stages here - inventory, redeployment, testing, and acceptanc...
I would like to create an .img file containing Ubuntu 13.10. I know how to get the .iso, but instructions for how to 'convert' it to .img I only found under Mac (see, for example, here) -- however, I work on Ubuntu 13.10. Which are the steps necessary to create the .img file?
