Maybe I don't understand but maybe there is a few more like me on this forum. I realize it's not rocket science to manually change the repositories, but I think it would be simple enough to do this for us "average" folks to make the first Diablo experience a little easier. If fring wasn't packaged correctly maybe Reggie shouldn't have promoted it quite so fast. Isn't that the reason for rolling updates? Maybe I've been spoiled by PCLOS - sometimes a little hand holding isn't a bad thing.
The keepers can always put the repositories back to "normal" when it is no longer a kluge - remember rolling update?
