If people were reading release notes, we wouldn't have this problem, as etch release notes ask users to install a 2.6 kernel already. Facts tells that it's like the 6th or 7th time we have such bug reports on the libc, and it's not even close to stop. My position is that the release notes for such an issue that touches well, everybody, - It's not really a problem in some arcane package right ? - are not enough. Of _course_ we answer to the users to read the release notes blah blah blah. But we could also completely prevent the problem. -- ·O· Pierre Habouzit ··O [EMAIL PROTECTED] OOO http://www.madism.org
