I'll also have to work on my spelling since I don't have anything to check it in evolution, since aspell seems to not want to install yet.

If you've already installed parts of the GCC 4 transition on your system, it won't be a particularly smooth move to testing. Also, keep in mind that testing will also have to undergo the GCC 4 transition in a couple weeks. It'll hopefully go smoother than the unstable one, but there will still be some bumps along the way. -- Society is never going to make any progress until we all learn to pretend to like each other. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Package: aspell Followup-For: Bug #317873 Hi, I see that aspell will probably be broken for some time. I first started using debian with stable, then thought that it was not up on the latest so much, so I switched to testing. Collegues of mine were using unstable with no problems so I switched to that. I've been on unstable for more than a year now and have been pretty pleased. Sure, every now and then a package would break, but the next day it was fixed. But lately, unstable has been earning its name. I almost lost all of gnome with an update. One of my collegues almost lost aptitude! My mouse has currently disappeared from X. X is running but when I came back to my computer, and got out of the screen saver, my mouse pointer is nowhere to be found. This has happened three times already, and once, the mouse came back after 10 minutes (I don't really use it much ;-). I'm not sure if the problem is with X or what, so I don't know where to report it. OK, so my question is, should I go back to testing. (Sorry to be offtopic for aspell, but the subject came up here). I've only gone from stable to testing to unstable. Never the reverse. How safe is that?
