Okay, I'm curious. Why - apart from the update snafu that has been sinced fixed either with an update or by simply using SMART/APT/Whatever - is 10.1 "a bad version"?
IMO the [non-]updater is the only evilness in 10.1. While we all screw up now and then, the [non-]updater was a *pretty*big* screw-up, which is why it draws lots of negative attention to an otherwise fine distro. (For comparison's sake, Ubuntu made a broken release of an X11 update a week or so ago. Some users couldn't start X11 after upgrading. The broken update was only online for a few hours, but it's still being bitched about in blogs and articles about Ubuntu.) People just like to bitch and moan. :) -- ----- stephan@s11n.net http://s11n.net "...pleasure is a grace and is not obedient to the commands of the will." -- Alan W. Watts
