Well... After a little bit more research I found a good email about this in debian mentors. http://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2003/debian-mentors-200307/msg00252.html Maybe this thread is not needed anymore. Sorry. []'s daniel Em Qua, 2003-10-08 às 16:25, Daniel Ruoso escreveu: >

I've actually sent him an email but got no answer. I've posted in debian-devel few days ago and nobody complained that GDM could source /etc/environment in the init script. That's an one-line patch (already tagged as patch in bts for more than a year)... I think that if the maintainer doesn't tak

Gnome2 in sarge

I didn't see any noise in debian-devel about the half upgrade to gnome2 in sarge, was it an accident? and now, will the other packages be upgraded also or I'll still have a half gnome2 desktop in sarge? i.e.: gnomeicu is still in the gnome1 version, but the gnome panel is gnome2, so gnomeicu apple
