That's a pretty stupid remark. Move it to unstable right now if you want to have a nightmare ... you should'nt move it to unstable until you have a responsible that is willing to coordinate the upgrade. It would be even better, if we could setup a staging area... And for the time it takes downloading a package, if you can't wait 30 minutes for the download, I doubt you can afford the time to test the package... BTW, many people are working on Debian with a single modem connection so we have no other choice than waiting the download. > > Get:1 http://www.daft.com ./ perl-5.6 5.6.0-0.1 [2875kB] > > Fetched 2875kB in 8m10s (5868B/s) > > Here it looks like it took 8min and not an half-hour. :) Cheers, -- Raphaël Hertzog -+- http://strasbourg.linuxfr.org/~raphael/
