stable-backports is stretch-backports. One reason NOT to use functional-names is that when the next release comes, "stable-backports" then points at backports for the new release, as this example shows. I always advocate using version names(for everything). Shame that Qubes templates use formal numbering. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
