the point is that lenny+half is delayed up until manpower is freed by no longer supporting the etch linux-2.6 images. that contradicts somehow the lenny+half intention as by that time typicaly squeeze starts to get mass installed. if you take a look back same story happened for etch: 2.6.18 -> 2.6.26 etch+half uses 2.6.24 (although there were also some upstream reasons, due to unstable dynamic ticks and bug friends that i no longer remember). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
