Unfortunately Gnome 2 is unmaintained and completely discontinued upstream, and for the Debian Gnome maintainers to maintain the packages and the code base it self would be a huge undertaking. Otherwise it's probably best to just stick with Squeeze and install backports. By the time the next stable Debian release hits the Gnome 3 fallback mode should be a lot better. -Jonathan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
