[Qgis-user] Re: [Qgis-developer] Critical problems with 1.7.2 from ubuntu binaries

[Etienne Tourigny]

shouldn't qgis be packaged in such a way to avoid multiple (minor)
versions of QGIS?

i.e. change the package names to  1.7 instead of 1.7.0 / 1.7.1 / 1.7.2 ?

There really is no need to have the old packages around, especially
with this issue.

Regards,
Etienne
