Community Wallpapers From Ubuntu Karmic To Oneiric, Available In The Ubuntu 12.04 Repositories

In the Ubuntu 12.04 community wallpapers post, I was telling you about some plans to provide packages for the wallpapers in each Ubuntu version. Well, as it turns out, this hasn't been postponed after all and an updated "ubuntu-wallpapers" package has landed in Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin which lets you install the community wallpapers from Ubuntu Karmic, Lucid, Maverick, Natty, Oneiric and obviously, Precise.

You can either get the wallpapers from a specific Ubuntu version by installing the "ubuntu-wallpapers-UBUNTU-VERSION" package (example: ubuntu-wallpapers-karmic), or all the wallpapers from Karmic to Precise, by using the following command:

sudo apt-get install ubuntu-wallpapers-karmic ubuntu-wallpapers-lucid ubuntu-wallpapers-maverick ubuntu-wallpapers-natty ubuntu-wallpapers-oneiric ubuntu-wallpapers-precise

If you're not using Ubuntu 12.04 and want all the community wallpapers from Ubuntu Karmic to Precise, download THIS archive.

Ubuntu 12.04 Wallpapers Updated (Community, Default Wallpaper)

The "ubuntu-wallpapers" package has just been updated and Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin now includes wallpapers from the community contest as well as the new default wallpaper:

Ubuntu 12.04 default wallpaper

Unfortunately, after installing the update that brings the new wallpapers in Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin, the old wallpapers (if you had the Ubuntu 11.10 wallpapers installed for instance) are removed. The package has been updated and the wallpapers for each Ubuntu version from Karmic to Precise are now available in their own package.

Download

If you're not using Ubuntu 12.04 yet, you can download the wallpapers from HERE.

The wallpapers have a 1920x1280 resolution but if you want, you can download the wallpapers in a higher resolution from HERE.

What do you think?
