Pre release of 4.1 artwork?

Postby CMatters » Sat Mar 21, 2009 9:37

Not sure this is the right forum for this question but I'll shoot anyway.

I did an "equo world" a few days ago and now my splash screen and desktop background say "Sabayon 4.1". I'm using KDE 3.5.x. I've looked through the announcements, forums, and planet and it appears 4.1 is still not released. So my question is, am I now running 4.1 or am I still on 4.0-r1 just with the 4.1 artwork? Just curious. BTW, the new artwork looks good.

Thanks!

welcome to the world of rolling release - as you world update you keep up with the latest stuff

install once, daily or weekly world updates and you are always current through out time

Thanks, Wolfden, for your quick answer. But I'm not really sure you answered my question. My original question is below... Thanks!

So my question is, am I now running 4.1 or am I still on 4.0-r1 just with the 4.1 artwork?

I don't think you understood the answer or rolling release

world update keeps you current

4.1 isn't finished yet, you are current

current as in up to date with all development, will you get 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5? yes - keep world updating

if you are ever curious you can cat /etc/sabayon-release

keep in mind as you world update you are rolling with the development so you get things in parts

We will freeze entropy when we need to release an iso so we can build the iso with the current entropy packages

I hope that is understandable

Thanks again for the quick reply. Yes, I understand a rolling release cycle but I definitely didn't understand your original answer. It was rather vague and open ended, imho. "latest stuff" could have been an appropriate answer to either "or" of my original question. Your latest response does, however, clear things up significantly. Particularly when you said "4.1 isn't finished yet". Again, thank you.
