I'm very glad to hear that. I wonder, while we are at it, why don't we
remove all the symlinks (save the "stable" one) in the dists directory
on install CDs:

/cdrom/dists# ls -l
total 2
dr-xr-xr-x 4 root root 2048 2007-04-07 13:29 etch
lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root    4 2007-04-07 13:29 frozen -> etch
lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root    4 2007-04-07 13:29 stable -> etch
lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root    4 2007-04-07 13:29 testing -> etch
lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root    4 2007-04-07 13:29 unstable -> etch

Would you help me to convince debian-cd maintainers that those
symlinks should be removed? Last time I tried I was told they were
there "just in case", but I fail to see how we could need a "frozen"
symlink at all.
