There is no need to churn through these frequent changes - they happen, but I currently don't care as I don't notice any of the bugs right now. I haven't updated any of the core gnome packages in a month now, and they seem working well. I only update pan and evolution, currently, as they have some bugs - and of course, occasionally, they drag in a new library. (And yes, I'm a sarge user, basically. Although with gnome2, quite a big part of sid came in). cheers -- vbi -- Operating Systems Installed: * Debian GNU/Linux 2.1 4 CD Set ($20 from www.chguy.net; price includes taxes, shipping, and a $3 donation to FSF). 2 CDs are binaries, 2 CDs complete source code; * Windows 98 Second Edition Upgrade Version ($136 through Megadepot.com, price does not include taxes/shipping).
