Well until then maybe GNOME 3 has evolved into a more usable state. That said, I haven´t used it. I am now going with KDE 4.7.2 packages from http://qt-kde.debian.net and thats awesome. The Debian Qt/KDE team does not KDEPIM 2 for now, but I understand the reasoning for it. It seems to have a lot of problems at the moment. Hopefully thats one of the last really huge migrations in KDE world for a time. ;) -- Martin 'Helios' Steigerwald - http://www.Lichtvoll.de GPG: 03B0 0D6C 0040 0710 4AFA B82F 991B EAAC A599 84C7 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
