Package: desktop-base Version: 4.0.0 Severity: normal After I had upgraded desktop-base to 4.0.0 yesterday, today I was forced to see a very weird login desktop totally unlike what I had configured for kdm and have been using for years.
At first, I was unable to find any clue whatsoever about how to get rid of the new login desktop. At the very least, the change (and how to revert it) should have been mentioned in desktop-base's NEWS.Debian or changelog file! Luckily, I found a posting about the issue on one of the Debian mailing lists: http://groups.google.com/group/linux.debian.maint.kde/browse_thread/thread/a799751c09976c91/3065cf1d5b153bb0 I think there should also be a way to disable that option via the KDE control center. At least that's where I looked for it. While I don't use Debian stable releases, I suggest that Debian doesn't accept such last minute changes without the usual 10 days review, as it seems to have happened here. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (600, 'testing'), (90, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-3-686 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) desktop-base depends on no packages. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
