Hi all, @Vincent thanx for taking the initiative here. As it stands now, cinnamon is unusable in wheezy. In testing it was removed due to the cogl/clutter transition. See https://lists.debian.org/debian-testing-changes/2013/08/msg00032.html for the removal note from testing. The only version in the archive i.e. 1.7.4-2.1+b1 suffers from #720466 . I tried it at my end too and had the same issue. Also from the notes it seems the new version also takes the newer libraries which should improve things as well. So hoping to see the new cinnamon version in the archive soonish. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com 065C 6D79 A68C E7EA 52B3 8D70 950D 53FB 729A 8B17 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
