I would like to know why the OSS and non-OSS repositories are only in the factory tree? These are constantly in flux and trying to install anything that relies on them when they are getting updated causes all sorts of problems. There should be a fixed set of repositories in the distribution branch built and released with the betas and fixed to those releases. If someone then wants the dynamics of factory, they can opt for it. This is crucial, since there are so many packages that others have dependencies on that are only in the on-line repos because of the space issue with the DVD. Today, I couldn't install some applications because perl-curses was no where to be found while oss was getting updated.
+1 Some kind of half-fixed photo of factory. Make a photo, better on fixed or known days and hours, and update it not every day, so that we have some time to download and test. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
