what do you mean by expedient? is a custom policy a lot of effort? > Neither of these will enable the use of previously-built packages. that should come as no surprise. this is a switch to a new base after all. it will be taxing for upgrades, but i don't see how it can be avoided. i'd rather have a clean break soon instead of waiting a long time trying to figure out an upgrade path that works for everyone, while in the meantime people switch away to other distributions. i'd like to see a focus on getting fl:3 working in itself, and then worry about upgrading later. greetings, martin. -- eKita - the online platform for your entire academic life hackerspace beijing - http://qike.info -- chief engineer eKita.co pike programmer pike.lysator.liu.se caudium.net foresight developer realss.com foresightlinux.org unix sysadmin trainer developer societyserver.org Martin Bähr working in china http://societyserver.org/mbaehr/ _______________________________________________ Foresight-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.foresightlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/foresight-devel
