Well, if you're going to wait for all bugs with all KDE packages on all platforms to be fixed, you'll never stabilise any new KDE version. It's time developers started thinking a bit more like users: which version of KDE do you use everyday ? > http://tinyurl.com/rg55l 122121 x86-64 ; 121270 "can't reproduce" (twice); 114860 kmail (I don't use Kmail, which is 1 modular package). I don't have time to go through them all, but that's the 1st 3 I picked. These are not reasons to keep the majority of KDE packages in ~x86 . > But yeah, you know better, no problems whatsoever. :P Yes, I know better: I haven't had any problems with any of the KDE packages which I have installed with versions 3.5.0 3.5.1 3.5.2 . It's time the developers started listening to users in this area: we really do appreciate your volunteer work, but without users that work would all be pointless. -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Centre for Urban & Community Studies TRANSIT `-O----------O---' University of Toronto -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
