Re: kernel 2.6.11



Eventually pure64 will no longer exist, before that time pure64 should
become a link to debian-pure64.  The howto used to read pure64, but
has since been corrected to read debian-pure64.  I believe packages
that are still sid hit pure64 before they hit debian-pure64 (I could
be wrong about this).  Either way, eventually everyone should be
running debian-pure64 as that is the official source.
