A security update in sarge for a different package breaks OOo2 in some circumstances on Sarge. That is, if someone installs OOo2, which means fetching it from elsewhere (backports perhaps?) an unrelated security update will stop it working. Personally I think the DS team have enough work making sure security updates are a smooth process for packages *in the OS*: being expected to test random-external-package-x on top of that is asking too much. -- Jon Dowland http://alcopop.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
