I only +found out when I read it here. + +When I installed Mageia, I carried over my chromium configuration from +Mandriva. But Mageia's chromium-stable didn't like that because Mandriva +was at version 12 and Mageia was version 11. So I installed the beta +version, because it would work and seemed a good compromise between the +stable and unstable versions. But I expected a progression, with the +latest version moving through unstable to beta and then to stable, not +leaping over both. + +If that's the way it's going to be maintained, it appears that if I want +to get the latest security fixes and features, I'd better stick to the +stable version myself. + +TJ + +</PRE> + + + + + +<!--endarticle--> + <HR> + <P><UL> + <!--threads--> + <LI>Previous message: <A HREF="005363.html">[Mageia-discuss] Chromium : Stable, beta and unstable versions in core repositories +</A></li> + <LI>Next message: <A HREF="005369.html">[Mageia-discuss] Chromium : Stable, beta and unstable versions in core repositories +</A></li> + <LI> <B>Messages sorted by:</B> + <a href="date.html#5367">[ date ]</a> + <a href="thread.html#5367">[ thread ]</a> + <a href="subject.html#5367">[ subject ]</a> + <a href="author.html#5367">[ author ]</a> + </LI> + </UL> + +<hr> +<a href="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-discuss">More information about the Mageia-discuss +mailing list</a><br> +</body></html> |
