There are going to be packages that users want that aren't included. That's life. We are never going to support every program that anyone might think they need. If you were a Debian developer, you could fix this by adopting or at least NMUing important programs that were unmaintained. Is it easier to stand on the outside and complain then actually work to making it better? ______________________________________________________________________ Do you want a free e-mail for life ?
