There is a new update for Debian/Sarge, this is security update only, the good news is that reading in lines, we can expect that the final release of Etch is really near, as the sarge is being moved to old stable.

Please all of you who use sarge and are going to continue using it, change your /etc/apt/sources.lst, from stable to sarge, and then run: apt-get update && apt-get upgrade

Hooray! But look out, you Unstable and Testing users!

Unstable is going to get a flood of things out of Experimental, and Testing is going to go into appoplectic fits. Make sure your sources.list files are pointing to "etch" and not "testing"!

A big hoorah to the Debian Developers.

Ok, oops, should have put that comment down in the "4.0 released" instead of the "3.1 updated" news.

Yeah, if you left your repos pegged to testing, don't go doing any mindless upgrades :)

I think that would be me your talking too. ;-)

If you've been keeping up with security.debian.org...

Sarge has been updated, yes, but if you've been keeping up with security.debian.org, the updates will not be traumatic.

There. That was the correct posting to put under this headline. :^)
