I'm looking forward to 4.3.4 getting to the official updates.
Should be there soon.

Finally, with 11.2 I will have a complete installation that has
everything working and nothing from outside :)
(well, except packman and Videolan)

I know you know but there might be others that didn't know that an
exceptional version upgrade is on the way :)

I don't think this has happened before.

Not for KDE, maybe, but 10.2 had an exceptional upgrade from
firefox 2.0.0.x to 3.0.x, a MAJOR version upgrade!
And I think they did this for Adobe Reader too... (7.0.9 to
8.something, as 7.0 wasn't maintained anymore).
