sid is unstable, and often suits its name. I wouldn't expect it ever to settle down if I were you. :) The current major blockers are the perl 5.8 and python 2.2 transitions. Those are being worked on and should be sorted out by a couple of weeks from now, but by then something else may well have taken their place. -- Colin Watson [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
