As one of the maintainers who will be receiving the bug reports (albeit the minor ones which really don't address any major issues), I say: bring it on. For users, on the other hand, I concur with your assessment. However, it still remains to be seen what the consensus will be. With gnome-terminal v2 being installed last dinstall run, maybe we will lean towards just installing gnome 2 and being done with it. Upgrading troubles are nothing new to unstable - I know this intimately, having had my GNOME configuration hosed repeatedly with libdb upgrades and other fun things. This is of a somewhat larger scale, though, and so I think I'd like to solicit other people's opinions, hopefully those who will be responsible for the core GNOME applications in debian in the future. -- Joe Drew <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Please encrypt email sent to me. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
