<off-topic> well, I had my server (mail, http, ssh, nfs, cups) under debian/testing, and after the second time in one month where I had to correct packages by hand because something broke up, I gave up and changed to debian/stable. If there really is something I need on the server that is not in debian/stable (chkrootkit, samhain, spamassassin), either I turn to www.apt-get.org and edit /etc/apt/preferences, or I do apt-get -b source ... KDE is more up-to-date from download.kde.org than from debian/unstable anyway, so even my workstation (alpha) runs stable ;) </off-topic> scribus is great! ineiti -- ------------------------------ Linus Gasser Chemin des C?dres 1 1004 Lausanne 021 647 53 05 http://www.linusetviviane.ch ------------------------------
