The we should probably notify all 3rd party maintainers to try running/compiling their packages against kde 3.2 in experimental/p.do packages. IMHO the real problem is arm/mips/mipsel/m68k - nothing guarantees that they will compile our packages in timely manner. I am not really happy of the thought that providing the best possible kde to 99% of our users depends on compiling kde on platforms whose users will probably not really use kde for anything :( -- Riku Voipio | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | kirkkonummentie 33 | +358 40 8476974 --+-- 02140 Espoo | | dark> A bad analogy is like leaky screwdriver |
