Maybe the more important question is how will Corel offer an upgrade to Corel Linux? Corel is clearly a polished distribution for end users similar in nature to windows users. As long as Corel offers a timely update when potato becomes available, I think their objective is met. For the more typical, commercial end users this is probably more desirable. Provided they can incorporate a potato based upgrade in a timely fashion.
Having said that... If they only changed it so you could not upgrade to potato directly (keep people coming back for theirs), that would be understandable yet a bummer. They offer nice additions. I just wonder how much more work it would have been to make Corel upgradeable to potato directly... paul -----Original Message----- From: Joey Hess [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, November 20, 1999 9:25 PM To: aphro Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; debian-user@lists.debian.org; debian-devel@lists.debian.org; recipient list not shown: ; Subject: Re: upgrading from corel linux to potato aphro wrote: > i have a feeling corel will have a glibc2.1 update to their linux not long > after potato is released ..very few will want to try to upgrade from corel > to potato ..it would be too painful It wouldn't be, if corel hadn't done stupid things with kde-corel. -- see shy jo -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] < /dev/null
