Hi their. I believe I can try and answer your question here. if you want a sane way to upgrade to Gnome 2.26, you have a number of options available. As it stands now, Sid is in a state where you have Mixed 2.24 and some 2.25 packages. So, when GNOME 2.26 nits Sid, it will be a simple upgrade to Sid, should you want to upgrade to Sid. As far as you're questions concerning it being ported to backports.org, I have no idea of its status, or even if it will be ported. Sorry I can't be of more help, but this is where things stand right now. --Erik
