hello,

my system is debian testing/unstable and i'd still like to use ximian
1.4...any experiences?

i mean it's working, more or less...i basically added the ximian server to
my sources list and apt-get installed the packages. results: gnome is
working as far as i can tell, with the following exceptions:

-red carpet depends on packages usermode, which depends on two packages
which don't seem to be available for woody, so i got them from potato
instead. but when i try to start red-carpet (after the query for the root
password pops up as usual) i get a segmentation fault...so, no red-carpet!

-there is this general problem that the package libgnomeprint11 won't
install because apparently it doesn't want to overwrite some files that
have already been provided by libgnomeprint-bin -- because of the arising
dependency issues nautilus, gnumeric and abiword won't install either! any
ideas there?

well, those are my main problems basically. any ideas on how to fix them?

thanks all!

-vester
