I have done a full installation and not noticed any regressions or problems. If there still is a memory leak due to progress bars, it must be very small and could probably be ignored for Etch, but I'll let Attilio decide on that. Loïc: How invasive is this patch? How would you judge the risk of regressions? Do you feel comfortable defending it for the RMs? Thanks again, FJP
