It's just a fallback for if someone opens an audio file from the file browser. 04:08:41 Allan: had a meeting with the upstream design team. They're happy with keeping Videos as Videos. 04:08:43 Neal: is concerned that users might be confused by the lack of a music player. 04:08:45 Allan: background to removing photos and rhythmbox is that people don't generally manage local media content 04:08:47 Chris: is OK with us making the change 04:08:49 Owen: the videos name isn't a big deal 04:08:51 Michael proposes that we make the change and think about the name again in the future 04:08:53 #action Michael to make the comps changes 04:08:55 #topic Make a small core of packages non-removable with DNF 04:08:57 #link https://pagure.io/fedora-workstation/issue/165 04:08:59 #agreed The WG agrees to make grub2, shim and gnome-shell non-removable. 04:09:01 #action Neal to open a PR to make grub2 and shim non-removable Fedora-wide 04:09:03 #action Kalev to protect gnome-shell (using fedora-release-workstation) 04:09:20 #endmeeting
