This said, it seems that Debian sometimes reacts faster than Fedora.
Whereas LiVES is still, as far as I know, a bug report/wishlist in Fedora,
the other distro has it included for the next release:

http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/lives

http://packages.debian.org/unstable/graphics/lives


Wanted to remind of some counter examples,
* Xubuntu 9.04 @ work:
	Firefox 3.0
	Thunderbird 2.0
	Pidgin 2.5.5 (supports only IMs)
	Emacs 22.2
* Fedora 11 @ home:
	Firefox 3.5.3
	Thunderbird 3.0b3
	Pidgin 2.6.2 (with audio/video support)
	Emacs 23.1

I find it very inconvenient to use the latest version of most apps on Ubuntu. You either have to use some buggy package from universe or use a PPA package.

PS: A (not-so-expert) friend recently switched to F11 just to use the latest pidgin :-p

Open source is the future. It sets us free.
