I know the version numbers are lower than in squeeze, so harm is done to running systems but a lot of bandwith and space on mirrors is wasted. So back to question one: Why are there a lot of packages in s-p-u that are clearly meant to be in o-p-u? Should i ask on debian-release? I couldn't find a list for ftp-master in the first place when i search earlier today. -- bye Thilo 4096R/0xC70B1A8F 721B 1BA0 095C 1ABA 3FC6 7C18 89A4 A2A0 C70B 1A8F -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
