Ten months passed since and we hope that you've noticed the change. It's time to apply the 'stable' label to the dublin release. This is what we had before: unstable testing ? dublin stable ? (nothing) After: unstable testing ? kiel stable ? dublin There's one important caveat: You cannot update packages from the legacy (old stable) catalog to the new stable. If you have a machine on which you still have the legacy package set, you must make a list of all your packages, uninstall them, then switch pkgutil to the new catalog and install the new set. Following the promotion of dublin to 'stable', the kiel release will become the new 'testing'. There's no general upgrading caveat, you will be able to upgrade from dublin to kiel (old 'testing' to new 'testing'). The change has been made on the master mirror and will propagate to other mirrors in withing the next day. In case of any problems, please contact us either on the mailing list or on the IRC channel, #opencsw on Freenode. Maciej -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
