We have 189 (i686/x86_64 included) packages which Yep indeed - I did the count approach as well at first - but I found it more helpful to poke around a little more and try to take into consideration importance, don't double count different arch's, dont double count related packages (e.g. gambas*, util-linux and libutil- linux etc). My goal was to tease apart the raw counts into something I found more meaningful. It is certainly true that different folks will lkely view importance differently or have different perspectives to my own. I'm only speaking for myself here. As an aside - both the 4.7.3 kernel and util-linux are already up to date :-) gene > -- Gene lists@xxxxxxxxxxxx
