Hi, Isaac! That seems very strange to me. I see no reason why they cannot backport patches to the Wheezy version of Chromium. Debian has been doing that since day one on other packages. Any upstream project could change the build environment could happen to any project, at any time. Debian has never demanded that an upstream project stay the same for their convenience before now. The fact that Debian chose to stop building updates for that reason shows a lack of commitment to Wheezy. Unless there is something I don't know about - It's not that they can't use or generate a patch. They simply won't. t.j. _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
