Keeping this list of mirrors current may be a problem.

How would supporting RedHat help convert them to Debian? :) Isn't KDE already in RedHat anyway? If RedHat wants to use apt-rpm then they are free to setup their own mirrors to use with it. Chris

What might be useful: o list of all kde packages for testing + kde unstable ;) o kde pkg version in stable, testing and unstable (+ link to why not in testing?) o numbered submit bugs in last, e.g. 3 days Achim > > - -Kamil -- To me vi is Zen.
