Well, the latter is in sid, that's the origin of the problem at hand. > Maybe 6.5 could temporarily stop providing the mesa-swrast-source package > (hell, the latter could come from its own package) FWIW, that might be a good idea until the Mesa and xserver builds have been completely decoupled. Then again, is anything else using mesa-swrast-source at all? If not, the files could just be included in the xserver tarball? > In any case, I don't see what's the problem with pushing these release > versions into *unstable* ... Mesa 6.5 is a development release with known problems. Should that be allowed to migrate to testing? It's my impression that the semantics you seem to attribute to sid have mostly shifted to experimental and that sid is mostly considered a staging area for testing now. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | Debian (powerpc), X and DRI developer Libre software enthusiast | http://svcs.affero.net/rm.php?r=daenzer
