I can not really argue against this. Quite the contrary I would say the same, if I would not jave to use this outdated OS. However, I do not know if it is really important, because Jaap ask for people using gtk < 2.12. But I think zim should support debian old-stables release at least for some month. Squeeze is now stable for two month and not every admin starts updating directly. > Yours is a particular case.
