I figure that someone at Debian hates the editors I like. What to do?
An apt-get dist-upgrade will remove abiword and gedit. They then would
be un-installable. This always happens with Sid and Gnome. Abiword is
always the last to be fixed. I smell a conspiracy!

Does anyone know the status of the repositories?
Thanks.

Hello all,
When we get a Sarge release in a few days, we will get crazy behavior
out of Sid for a while? I seem to remember that when Woody was released,
updating in testing or Sid was a problem for a long time. Will that be
the case again?

This is a tad irritating. It started in Sid with the

Is there anyway that the Debian team could make it so I could use libcupsys2

The latter breaks my HP 920c in that I can no longer print text --- but
graphics still works. With libcupsys2 it works just great.
Can we put back the library
Hello all,
The above says it all.
If I am to keep Sarge upgraded, I will have to accept libcupsys2-gnutls10. :-(
This makes my HP 920c print graphics only. I lose text printing. I do not
print many photos however. I do like to print a little text once in a while!
Any workarounds?

Hello All,
I can print perfectly to an HP 920c inkjet printer with my setup using
libcupsys2.
But, when I upgrade to libcupsys2-gnutls10 (it is in Sid) I can only print
the graphics portion of a doc --- no text at all.
Anyone know what I might be doing wrong?

Hello All,
I am now running pure Sarge and everything works just dandy.
If I upgrade to Sid, then I end up with the new cups libcupsys2-gnutils10
(I think, this is from memory). Now, with that in place, my HP 920c inkjet
will print only the graphics stuff but not any text at all. Not the first
