No, it's not. The components that have so far been upgraded were upgraded entirely automatically. The dependencies within the GNOME 2 packages are simply not strict enough to prevent (say) gnome-panel being installed into testing with an older gnome-control-center (and it's possible that they can't be, which is why releases aren't automatic either ...). -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
