Rather not; I've started a build task that might result in WindowMaker source package from sisyphus built for p9 though: http://git.altlinux.org/tasks/362730/ -- look for the appropriate arch directory in results if it gets TESTED, and for rpms/ inside it. > Or, are there other mechanisms that I need to address before > attempting such an update, outside of the typical apt-get > dist-upgrade process? I'd get myself an srpm and rebuild it usually, but that means installing the development packages it requires (starting with rpm-build of course); note that ALT packages get built as user, not root. -- Michael Shigorin http://altlinux.org/elbrus
