I think there was a testing version of the 2007.0 profile in the tree, it is |
12 |
not there now. I have no clue how you managed to be using 2007.0 unless you |
13 |
made the updated link yourself. |

I have a system I installed two days ago which used 2006.1, it is now using |
16 |
2006.1/desktop, then I have several other systems I administor using 2006.0 |
17 |
or 2006.1. Changing the symlink will fix your issue, the new profiles should |
18 |
not be used until that version is released as they are *experimental*, i.e. |
19 |
things are being tried out in them etc. |

Right now I am busy writing up my thesis and so I am not sure exactly why they |
22 |
have been removed from the tree as I don't have time to keep up with |
23 |
everything in the amd64 herd. I would highly recommend using 2006.1/desktop |
24 |
for desktop systems and making the switch to 2007.1 once the release is made. |
