Hi, I always enjoyed having the latest and greatest gnome stuff on my pc. And since I have debian on my box (many years), I never had to reinstall it! Which is definitely not true for other distributions.
And if I understand the signs of the last weeks right, I guess debian experimental (speaking for Gnome) is now Ubuntu hoary (or UU/unstable). "hoary" has Gnome 2.9.x, evolution 2.1.3. Evo 2.1.3 packages have made it into experimental, but a lot of required libraries are missing. The actual reason I'm writhing this, is that I just searched for evince (this cool new pdf/ps viewer :) packages in debian, and I only found packages for evince in hoary/universe (which shoudl be debian packages repackaged for UU?). Which made me think.. I fully understand the shift of focus from debian to ubuntu, from the developers point of view. But from a (bleeding-edge-gnome-)users point of view: Is Ubuntu now the bleeding edge to go to? Will just the stable gnome thingies make it from ubuntu to debian? Go for hoary (Will it be the same as with the ximian gnome packages, back in gnome 1.4 times? *horror* ;))? But leave Debian..? I hope you understand my dilemma. I'm happy for any comments. domi. -- Dominik 'Aeneas' Schnitzer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.schnitzer.at/dominik/ - Update 21/11/04: Firefox 1.0 Party -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
