[mozilla-firebird]
I am unsure what I should be moving toward:
(1) Go back to the "stable" distribution, and find backports at
www.apt-get.org?
I am on stable and tried to do this.
Apt also tried to remove much of KDE.
(Someone told me this was because firebird depends on
something/someversion that does not work with KDE/stable)
woody:/home/stw# apt-get install mozilla-firebird
[...]
10 packages upgraded, 18 newly installed, 76 to remove and 144 not
upgraded.
Since I noticed the 144 not upgraded on my system when trying, I did
apt-get upgrade with 70 not upgraded.
I removed the line in /etc/apt/sources.list that I added there for
firebird and everything was alright.
So I guess I need to be more careful with 'unofficial' sources for stable :)
