Users should ask before the stable release (even if asked months before) to have an old-stable repository. Christian ------------------------------------------------------- This is a bit sad. Christian has trashed all the available multimedia packages for Sarge since Etch has gone stable. In effect. if we want multimedia packages we are being forced to upgrade to, at least Etch. I have 1 Sarge, and 2 Etch installs. One of my Etch installs I'm soon going to put back on testing to see how lenny goes, but don't understand why packages that were available for Sarge from Christian Marillat's repo are now no longer available!!. Sometimes I wonder if I'm wasting my time working with computers. It might just be better taking my dog for a walk. Throwing a stick for him to fetch, and seeing him bringing it back to you. There's certainly more peace of mind when playing with a dog, than trying to resolve problems with the infernal machine. Apologies. Perhaps I'm just a bit T'd off at the mo.
