I expect none of "our" > packages will be installed using the packages in unstable now. I expect(ed) so too, but I dont see how this matters. The only thing we test (and support) are installations from our lenny(-test) images anyway, so why care if unstable is broken? And as lenny-test already has the new debian-edu package that shouldnt be broken. Please also note that I followed the "release early, release often" mantra and feel free to do new uploads to fix stuff ;-) > Also, the installation is not working as it should with the svn > version of debian-edu and debian-edu-install, ref my email earlier > about tasksel.

So this needs further testing? Should we remove that "does not properly yet" from the changelog in svn already? > You install it by specifying > 'desktop=gnome' as a boot parameter to the installer. Thanks.

Hmpf. d-i has the policy of not commiting untested changes, I think we should at least use bugs to track such things. "hopefully, maybe, no idea if" in changelogs doesnt really help much IMHO... regards, Holger
