I've not yet used overlays or layman; can I beg for a quick summary |
18 |
for dummies? :-) Unfortunately, I am away from that machine for the |
19 |
next week or so, and won't be able to report success or not until I |
20 |
get access to it again. |

Back when I ran slackware, there were some packages which I always |
23 |
updated immediately because they were always good code: fvwm and |
24 |
postgresql were among them. I know postgresql lags some, which is |
25 |
annoying, but I had no idea fvwm was so out of date. Should I add a |
26 |
requtes to that bug for moving it into the main ebuilds, or is there a |
27 |
better way of requesting that? |
