I appreciate knowing that our setup will not break due to this but also compile and download various packages like libreoffice and xfce-4.10. Now I would not expect libreoffice to be packaged but xfce-4.10 had a year or two year testing cycle before release and so I see it as perhaps one of very few exceptions. OTOH I have just run into a glib(gio) segmentation fault in debian 6 likely due to mime.cache file corruption in .local, certainly due to that file in any case. Quite Ironic that xfce-4.10 is more stable thanan included package which it is built on ;-). Perhaps it was caused by the mix of old and new code but then I suppose that glib bug would have been fixed. In any case, no problem just thought it was worth consideration as a particular case. I am probably going to drop the xfce4-panel from our plans now anyway. Nothing to do with xfce but glib taking everything down including the panel and synaptic for what should be a non issue as it is a file that could just be deleted is simply unacceptable to me when there are rock solid alternatives. -- _______________________________________________________________________ 'Write programs that do one thing and do it well.
