I was talking about default Kubuntu, not about using Debian repositories.
I had quite long tryout with Debian and sincerely I wasn't impressed.
- If I wanted stability version was almost obsolete.
- If I wanted newer packages stability was victim.

SUSE was golden cut between new and stable and despite package management
problems with 10.1 that nobody familiar with SUSE blames on developers, it
is still good in that respect.

I agree, though I think 10.2 has too many artificial dependencies.
I understand that these will NOT be in 10.3. That will make *me*
happy.
