Are there any problems if only one of the wmaker packages is installed? (I am running wmaker-plain 0.61.1-0.slink.0 from vincents unnoficial xfree86-update archive for Slink) I have only one window manager installed and would like to avoid removing it when I upgrade. Are there technical reasons for not continuing to package the different versions of wmaker? Just curious, as maintainers time seems a valid reason as others. thanks, -ptw-
