It's a good idea, "flame" was just a thought (after the Hungarian list
linux-flame). The name debian-discussion would be quite appropriate for
the topics that I mentioned. So
This is getting to be a bit offtopic. Some linux lists have a "flame"
counterpart specifically for these issues, i.e. the ones that are not
technical. Couldn't we start a debian-flame list for these debates? The
people who are interested in these could sign up for that.

But later on he becomes a wormlike creature so he is in a different
category :-) Sorry.

Thanks, that's what I wanted to know.

It's NOT the solution, just a treatment of the sympthom. I'm asking
whether there is a real reason or is it a mistake.

On my system, asm and linux are perfect and scsi is not a symlink.

Does anyone know why libc6-dev doesn't accept kernel-headers-2.0.33? It
depends on kernel-headers, but it only works with the 2.0.32 one.

Yes, he is. I don't think that many of the voters take seriously what

There is something strange with my squid(-novm) packages. On Monday I used
dselect to do an upgrade, and squid hasn't been working since. (Two months
ago I changed from squid to squid-novm, and it was working fine till
Monday). I tried to reinstall them, but the current ones cannot be
removed. The
