There are not updates to stable except for security and other very good reasons. Even for regular bugfixes there wouldn't be updates for enigma on stable. Thats part of the very nature of Debian stable. So basically the next hard deadline we have is the earliest in december... > If you stick to r71 or publish further interim releases it is up to you > to inform the Debian users about this unsupported update procedure. Well, the package is only in unstable for now. I can file a bug to prevent it from entering testing; we don't have to care as much for upgrade paths in unstable. > r71 saves the score still in the old .enimgarc2 which will be > autoupdated with next major release. Which should be fine, shouldn't it? And this way you get some additional testing for the current svn versions. ;-) best regards, Erich Schubert -- erich@(vitavonni.de|debian.org) -- GPG Key ID: 4B3A135C (o_ A man doesn't know what he knows until he knows what he doesn't know. //\ Man kann sich auch in Gesellschaft anderer einsam fühlen.
