Debian Votes on AMD64 in Sarge

Posted by michael on Tuesday July 20, 2004 @07:40AM from the vote-the-party-line dept.

JayBonci writes "According to a message sent to debian-vote, there is now a GR on the table as to whether or not to include AMD64 into the upcoming sarge release, even though it violates part of the LSB (Linux Standards Base). The debian-vote list has more discussion on it. Does this best meet the needs of the users?"

The stinking winds of a decaying Linux distro blow through the back posts of Slashdot.

You can always use gentoo. Every oldschool debian nut I know has made the switch at this point. It's just better. I wish the debian developers would at least make an effort to help out the gentoo people and give up on their sinking distro. It isn't good for anybody beating a dead horse.
