I know that is what is happening - what nobody has answered completely yet is WHY you can't put 2.95 compiled packages in to unstable at first and then follow up later with 3.2 compiled versions (with the different names if that is what the plan entails - or just later versions if not). With all this delay - and given debian's speed gcc 3.2 becoming default could still be months away - not only does kde 3 itself not get into the distribution, but all the packages that depend on it don't either. I am very pleased that kde.org is hosting the packages - and as I said in a mail about a week ago - from a kde perspective, thats a good way of promoting the kde packages to the debian community. But, from a debian perspective it seems strange that a set of packages as important as kde can't even make it into unstable, and that without doing so the packaging (and even kde itself?) doesn't get as much shaking down as it otherwise would. - -- Alan Chandler [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.0 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE9saO7uFHxcV2FFoIRAjw0AKCycyNpJ04WIQ9Aer5T1ZhikaIetwCcCoHA iikHg70ETb+ztI3M44us7Wg= =tS39 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
