We very much depend on outside sources as to when/what we can pkg for > each arch. i make no such claim, debians packages for netscape on powerpc are outdated compared to other powerpc distributions, i don't care why or who's fault it is. 4.6 is far less stable then 4.7x (on powerpc anyway) which is a release critical bug. I have heard dark say before that all the archetectures are in this together. maybe that is not true after all. -- Ethan Benson http://www.alaska.net/~erbenson/
