Re: GNOME 0.20 is released!

[Patrice LaFlamme <narmox yahoo com>]

But works only with RH5.1???
I have 5.0 (will upgrade soon but in the meantime), and there were
many packages I had to upgrade to make it work... And it still doesn't
work 100% (like the panel) and now some of my other apps don't work
because I upgraded some packages...
