Re: Squeeze 6.0.5 is here

Ahh...so *that*'s the real reason Statler has a lsb-release-statler rather than lsb-release.  Totally wouldn't have known about the point release of Squeeze if el_k hadn't pointed it out here.

I take it my regular dist-upgrades have kept my Statler install in line with Squeeze?

Re: Squeeze 6.0.5 is here

may be we can hope for one of the last squeeze-based #! releases or one could think with waldorf as the main point of emphasis, what we have is what we got?

No idea, I'm running straight Debian, and I'm sure as hell not gonna upgrade until Wheezy goes stable
Plus, Squeeze is running so great, papanom can just leave Statler as it is, no worries.

Ohhh.  So that's what I got the other day.  Makes me appreciate stable all the more.

Re: Squeeze 6.0.5 is here

I agree on that, yet it would be cool to have an image with all the things that were added later - like compton, etc

Re: Squeeze 6.0.5 is here

^ There is no compton in either Squeeze or Statler.

sudo apt-get install git checkinstall build-essential
sudo apt-get build-dep xcompmgr
mkdir -p src && cd src
git clone https://github.com/chjj/compton.git   
cd compton
make
sudo checkinstall -D make install

Done.

Pfeh, it's nice to see other people in The Church of Debian Stable. The only ones worshiping Stable are dudes on the Debian Forums, and that's a bad place to be.

Thank you for the guide - I think it would benefit all if you post it in the Tips and Tricks section as well, but it was my belief that another (possibly final) release of squeeze-based #! would be nice and up-to-date from the get-go

You mean, an image based on Squeeze, but with a load of apps added that really belong to Wheezy? Quite a lot of work there I'd guess...

+1

Regarding compton, I installed the Waldorf package and all went fine

Re: Squeeze 6.0.5 is here

Of course, all that said, full respect to the people who work their way through the bugs in Testing and Unstable so that I can now enjoy the fruits of their labours in Stable!
