There was a working installer in Woody (clunky, but working.) Given a known release schedule, it wouldn't have been repaced in Sarge until a new, working installer was actually ready. Note that I said "frozen" every six months. Obviously if the frozen version was still unreleasable work would continue until it was ready -- just no changes not related to stability or security. -- Carl Fink [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jabootu's Minister of Proofreading http://www.jabootu.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
