Having no memory of anyone's having advised you to upgrade to Lenny, I have just reread the entire lengthy previous thread. I could not find a single person advising you to upgrade. In fact at least two of us explicitly advised you *not* to upgrade, if you were uncomfortable with doing it. One person did indeed say that the support you would have on this list would dwindle and did seem to suggest that it would be better to upgrade, but he did not explicitly say so. And he was correct in his statement that fewer and fewer other people would be using Etch. That is merely a statement of fact. And one could reasonably infer that he himself, were he in your situation, would upgrade. But he certainly didn't actually advise you to do it. All any of us were trying to do was to apprise you of the actual situation, since your decisions seemed to be based on false premises. Perhaps part of your difficulty here is that you do read carefully the advice you are given. Lisi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
