potato? A while back, they moved to glibc2.1 in potato, and we had no glibc2.1
capable jdk. Since I was doing a lot of java, that wasn't gonna work, so I
flushed and installed slink, and haven't had the time/patience/balls to try
potato again :) I'd imagine the package files are huge if they got 4k. delta
updates to those would be sweet :)
