I'm with you here, Donn. By the time Edgy is "stable" -- truly, not just theoretically -- its apps will be as out of date as Dapper's. I chose to stay with Dapper because of LTS. I just wish the LTS meant that there would be more backports. -- _____________________________________________________________ Art Alexion PGP fingerprint: 52A4 B10C AA73 096F A661 92D2 3B65 8EAC ACC5 BA7A Keyserver: hkp://subkeys.pgp.net The attachment - signature.asc - is my electronic signature; no need for alarm.
