Arch is bleeding edge. See About page: http://www.archlinux.org/about.php Note the word bleeding. Things will break occasionally, and thats just part of the fun of using Arch. Most major things are put in testing and are there for a reasonable amount of time. Other things which would seem like a minor version upgrade have also caused problems, these cant be forseen by the devs, and its impractical to put every minor version into testing. You dont realise how much more trouble you would have if everything went straight to extra/current. I like bleeding, and most of the time its not bad at all, a minor fix or glance at the mailing list, homepage or wiki to fix it. iphitus -- iphitus - archck maintainer, arch trusted user.
