Of course, given the major transitions we have happening here, no wonder things are as good as they currently are iv you're running unstable. The the major transitions: glibc 2.0.7 --> glibc 2.1 gcc 2.7.x --> egcs kernel 2.0.36 --> kernel 2.2.x perl 5.004 --> perl 5.004/5.005 X 3.3.2.3 --> X 3.3.4 If the lot of those aren't good reason to have things break, I don't know what is. -- Joseph Carter <knghtbrd@debian.org> Debian GNU/Linux developer GnuPG: 2048g/3F9C2A43 - 20F6 2261 F185 7A3E 79FC 44F9 8FF7 D7A3 DCF9 DAB3 PGP 2.6: 2048R/50BDA0ED - E8 D6 84 81 E3 A8 BB 77 8E E2 29 96 C9 44 5F BE -------------------------------------------------------------------------- <wc> red dye causes cancer, haven't you heard?
