A serious bug is enough to keep a package out of testing; it's even enough to get it pulled from testing if it's already there, especially one that's almost a year old... The real problem will've been that postgresql probably needs to be updated at the same time as php3 and apache and python and a handful of other software, which hasn't all been stable and consistent and bug-free since testing got rolled out. (It's problem at the moment is it's getting uploaded every few days. Hopefully when that settles down it'll go in) Cheers, aj -- Anthony Towns <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://azure.humbug.org.au/~aj/> I don't speak for anyone save myself.
