But I would add that it would be helpful if people had a better idea how they could "lock down" certain apps, or even if that were possible. I.e., prevent certain things from upgrading. Allowing a user to say, well, I'm just not going to upgrade KDE has to be a good thing. Of course, you can do that now, but it is too complicated, and it is too easy to mess up, get the upgrade, and then have to go through some nightmarish process to roll it back. Richard
