Hmm, Yast made me want to hurt small things the last (and first) time I used it. I'm increasingly wondering that this might have been a fault at my end, since a lot of people seem to like it now.

Opera do have a repository of .deb packages for *buntu, and I'm pretty sure they do a Debian one. You can certainly download .debs of it from their site. Every few months I decide Opera's amazing and switch back to it, then remember how badly I get along with the search-from-the-address-bar thing. > I know, Seamonkey isn't Firefox though.

There was an announcement to the effect of a new Seamonkey release a few weeks ago. Unfortunately, from what I gather (through very limited research) it looks to be Thunderbird + Firefox rather than a progression of the goodness that is Seamonkey. -- Avi Greenbury http://aviswebsite.co.uk ;) http://aviswebsite.co.uk/asking-questions -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
