About that List?
Hello!
I don't now exactly, what the intention this Mailinglist is, so I may be
OT here.
What I am missing in the debian Project is a desktop release. I had many
Problems with the 3.0 release, for example the cdwriting stuff is not up
to date, the kde and other desktop software is outdate, the ghostscript
version caused many Problems on my system ...
But updating this packages by backports or testing/unstable Versions is
tricky and could/should not be done by any user.
I thought about knoppix to be the solution for this, but ran into new
Problems, because you can't update the deb packages of knoppix with the
apt tools. (sure, technikal that works, but koppix has no own server for
ne deb Packages, so you have to use again the esting/unstable Packages).
So the only way to update knoppix in an secure way is to install it new
from a knoppix CD or to select the deb packages by your own, to avoid
truble.
The solution I would sugest is to have a Debian Desktop Distribution,
based on knopiix, with its own server for the deb packages.
What is your opionion ... If there is anyone reading this list ...
Regards
Florian
