Will it be uploaded to unstable soon? Installing core packages from Experimental is rather scary. BTW, why doesn't compression make the symlink limitation disappear? I mean that if there are several copies of the same firmware, why doesn't compression remove all the redundancies? -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <https://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <https://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
