Oh Lord, what a mess! Hundreds of obsolete KDE 2.2 packages depending on an obsolete libfam -- why can't they just go away? A certain amount of breakage is inevitable when the new fam enters testing. Why can't it happen now? Who would still want to use KDE 2.2.2? Who has to take the decision? Thanks, Johannes
