X-Enigmail-Version: 0.95.7 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Virus-Scanned: amavisd-maia at lichtfels.com X-Archives-Salt: f902e395-99b5-4246-add5-95fc539af24e X-Archives-Hash: 6cf747238c8027f8eea6a74b36c5a4e0 Without any ranting ... I feel kind of stupid waiting for GNOME 2.26 going stable within the gentoo-tree while GNOME 2.28 is out now at gnome.org. Maybe I am too conservative here and could already use 2.26 for a while by unmasking lots of packages or doing *something* ... Not that I really miss something, it's just that I wonder ... and I would like to explore any new features etc ... The question: Should I wait for bug 263083 to be done? https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=263083 Or is there a "safe enough, stable enough" way to get gnome-2.26 onto my amd64-desktop without crashing my main workstation every few days? Again: I appreciate the work of all the gentoo-devs, I am far from being able to judge their work. I just ask as I assume that I am missing something maybe ... Thanks, Stefan.
