Exactly, what I don't want is to Install 2005.1-r1 stage3 and then have to update the stage3 it takes too much time to compile the updated version of glib and gcc.<br><br>I also like to have GRP packages for Gnome and so, my Home Internet conection is not too fast so I prefer to update the less packages I can.
