Potato, as compared to slink, is 2.2.x based, and some packages had to
be changed accordingly. I'd think that once changed, those package
break 2.0.x 'compliance' in some way. (Though maybe not making it
completely unusable)
As fot the original question: I've been using potato since slink was
released, and it's just perfect so far. A few glitches (apache-ssl
still won't start, don't ask why, I don't have time to investigate
anyway =P ) but I still can praise linux for its stability over windows ;)
