I plan to use at least KVM and FVWM directly from upstream on
further systems, because these packages are the most important.
But, the idea of a distribution like Debian is to get
stable software onto the computer by typing
"apt-get install something". Each exception I have to make
erodes the whole idea of a ready-to-use Linux distribution.
My Wheezy and Sid systems, wich were up-to-date during
Christmas, also come with FVWM "2.5.30". This seems to be
true until now:
http://packages.debian.org/lenny/fvwm
--> fvwm (1:2.5.26-1)
http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/fvwm
--> fvwm (1:2.5.30.ds-1)
http://packages.debian.org/wheezy/fvwm
--> fvwm (1:2.5.30.ds-1)
http://packages.debian.org/sid/fvwm
--> fvwm (1:2.5.30.ds-1 and others)
Does anybody know why even Sid is behind schedule that much?
