Thanks.
testing is like that sometimes - a lot of GNOME has been backed up pretty much since it came into existence, and a recent version only got in recently. http://ftp-master.debian.org/testing/ has all the status information, although it can be difficult to interpret sometimes. gnome-applets is out of date on sparc (and arm and powerpc as well, although those are behind in general), and recently had a serious bug filed against it too. sawfish is out of date on alpha. Somebody will need to get the architectures into sync before it can get into testing; part of the idea of testing is to make sure that the six architectures for which Debian currently releases have synchronized versions of all packages. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
