The "stable" there was meant to mean the "stable version of s3cmd" instead of the stable release of Debian. But I see now that by the Debian conventions the "stable" is understood to mean the current Debian release. Hmm, that's indeed a bit confusing. On the other hand the DEB file is created in such a way that it should work on all current DEB-based distros and I see a little point in creating the aliases. So far (in less than 2 days since the announcement) nearly 60 servers got the repo activated, both Debian and Ubuntu of various versions (guessing from the User-agent log records). Although the "stable/" bit may be a little uncommon it seems to work for the folks :) Michal ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Special Offer-- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE (a $49 USD value)!
