Greetings, Gilles.
Klaus K is still struggling with a PCManFM problem in CeBIT 7.1.
If you have a solution for that, it would help get the Community Version out.
As I understand it, a mouse-over of a desktop icon ( in the CeBIT version)
causes an automatic click to open unless a double-click to open option is in force.
Werner or Klaus2008 may be able to explain this more clearly, I don't have
the CeBIT version, myself.
Regards.

Hi Utu,
I just tried Knoppix CeBIT 7.1 as a VMware guest (booting from the iso without customization)
and I can see that just moving the mouse over the "KNOPPIX" folder (without any button pressed)
does actually select that folder as if the button was pressed before moving over that desktop icon.
But it does not open the folder content (as if you would click on that desktop folder icon).
As expected a click on the folder icon does open the folder content.
Not sure why this is a big deal anyway.
In my slightly customized setup I disabled the single click and the problem is gone:
in the [config] section of the file: ~knoppix/.config/libfm/libfm.conf
change "single_click=1" to "single_click=0"
I understand that for some user the need for a double click may be a problem
but this can always be improved/solved in a later release and my guess is that
a lot of Knoppix users would be very happy to see a Knoppix 7.1 Community version
released sooner than later (even with a double click as a default) since not
everybody can have access to the Knoppix CeBIT 7.1version.
My two cents,
Gilles

I don't believe PCManFM's problem is the only problem within V7.1. If I look for possibly problems, I'll get this list. In comparison, within V7.0.5 are no problems reported by kn-what.sh.

This list contains many packages in common with 7.0.5, which does not have this problem.
Also, 'pi' and 'hi' mean what?

Some packages have the same version, some are newer.
hi => Hold/Inst
pi => Purge/Inst

If I run aptitude for the first time within Knoppix V7.1, I'll get this screen; in comparison there are no error messages from aptitude within V7.0.5

Greetings, Werner.
What happens if you try to upgrade the 17 broken packages from
"unstable" manually using
sudo apt-get install -t unstable packagename?
-
In the next days Debian testing will become stable and all within '/etc/apt/sources.lst' must be changed. Therefore at present it makes little sense to look what happens using "-t testing" versus "-t unstable". I believe, KK is also waiting until Debian Wheezy will be "stable".

I think you are right, and this may change Aptitude's assessment.
Broken packages is not a popular theory with _some_ developers.
