Intrepid will come soon and this dialog isn't changed. Is it still
possible to add a warning here? I'm quite active inside the german
ubuntuusers.de forums and we had MANY user who activated those sources.
They all had massive problems with kernel 2.6.24-20. So, at least a

Yesterday a lot of people uninstalled firefox and today gnome-panel and

I confirm this bug. But I have to say one thing:
I've commented -proposed repo, removed "subversion" using "sudo apt-get
