I would like to point out that pkg-gnome team already fixed the gnome-dbg related Recommends in svn; for those with gnome-desktop-environment installed if it was October 1st, it would install all the debug enabled packages. Lots of people using GNOME will see half a gigabyte results that will mean nothing once apt development team do the change they're planning. regards, -- stratus http://stratusandtheswirl.blogspot.com get debian @ http://get.debian.net/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
