Not trying to argue, but the example I gave still stands?

A third example would be a package that moves ridiculously quickly, like gitlab, stable is on 8.5, unstable is on 8.10, the current release is 8.11. I think it would be easier to maintain a system if I could have point to multiple places for channels, and then in the install specifically describe which provider I want to use. -- Matthew O'Gorman BM-NBUmia4p88Jny5bZbRGcMt64SWWp5WVv TorChat: 5w3dtk7nhkkijcpc Site: https://b.rldn.net Xim/Email: [email protected] mog@rldn:~$ fortune wisdom -s|cowsay -f /dev/null ___________________________________ < Life exists for no known purpose. > -----------------------------------
