The guys running the big machines are going to be a minority and should have no problem downloading util-linux. Even over a modem, its probably OK. It may be not worth it to risk the instability for the vast majority. The kernel source itself may be a problem for a slow or expensive modem link. I guess I don't care too much about the cachet of having 2.2 in slink. I wonder if we'll put 2.4 in slink ....
