I see some extremely talented people - Michael Schwendt, Dag Wieers and Axel Thimm not working together and I am disappointed. I certainly credit of them (and others of course) for their tireless efforts, their good intentions and extremely valuable contributions. The problem with incompatible repositories raises the complexity for those of us that aren't necessarily equipped to deal with them and it creates unnecessary FUD. My appeal would be a Rodney King like - "can't we all get along?" but if this has to be a competition of philosophies, I can't forget how great it was to take an old RH 8.0 machine, install apt, change the repository to Axel's and apt-get dist upgrade to Fedora and then apt-get install mythtv-suite. It's clear to me that some compromise is eventually the only way, it's really a question of when. It would be nice to see it happen for FC-3 releases. Craig
