Several.

First I never got netatalk1.4+asun to work reliably on linuxppc. After
many trial and errors I got it working but then the macs accessing my
box suddenly froze up every few files/opening folders. Then I read about
all these alias problems and so on. Now I've tried netatalk from potato
several months ago and when it didn't work just out of the box I gave up
and thought it's not worth it. Maybe I should try again I don't know.

I'm setting up a production system, and hence would like to stay with
potato. I think that if you upgrade glibc you could just as well upgrade
to woody. (reliability and dependency wise. Am I wrong?)
