Well keep in mind there is a lot of stuff to migrate. The Debian
developers are done, but that doesn't mean that they can't take today
off (It IS Easter Sunday, after all).
They've still got the upload everything into the directories, and if I
was a DD I'd wait until late at night to do it (The least amount of
people would be upgrading 3:00AM UK/9:00PM US), but we'll see how that
works out.
I've run aptitude update && aptitude upgrade too many times now, and
cat /etc/debian_version still says 4.0. I was hoping to be able to come
back from breakfast and see a Debian Lenny system, but oh well.
I'm just glad that updating Xorg didn't break my system, and I hope it's
a sign of things to come.
