Can we we 100% sure it does no harm, even on other archs than i386? I would think the risk of breaking other systems/installations outweighs the advantage of working around a known issue for what is still a small group of users. > I don't have the reference you mention above available to read now but > from what I understand, the workaround is not really obvious to end > users, am I wrong? Not as it is documented now, but that could be improved in the run-up to the release of Sarge (errata, release notes, manual?). Maybe it is time to start formulating a policy on what type of issues should be documented in which document and how these should be distributed. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
