Sometimes, old bits just have to die. And it is painful. FWIW, for Etch->Lenny upgrades, some people will go through the pain that means no longer having Apache 1.x (as some of its modules are not available for 2.x or not API-compatible). Should we keep obsolete, deprecated, abandoned software forever? Hmmm... Sounds like an argument for porting Debian to the C64. -- Gunnar Wolf - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - (+52-55)5623-0154 / 1451-2244 PGP key 1024D/8BB527AF 2001-10-23 Fingerprint: 0C79 D2D1 2C4E 9CE4 5973 F800 D80E F35A 8BB5 27AF -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
