Every morning this week has been met with a significant number of updates screaming for immediate installation and thanks to the handy updates manager, it hasn't been a chore. The reason, of course, for the glut of new packages and fixes is the release of Edgy Eft. The RC has been out for a week now and final release is upon us.
I've had no problems with the updates on my freshly installed desktop machine. I'll have to try a dist-upgrade on my backup server and see if it breaks!

Gnomebaker burnt!
It would appear that the default installation of GnomeBaker doesn't exactly "work".
While, this helpfully downloaded the aforementioned, installed it and created links to it in the Applications menu, trying to write a CD or DVD doesn't work. It would appear that there are some permissions errors and the app can't get access to the drive :o(. Running the app as root using sudo gnomebaker does work, but is hardly a workable solution in the long term!
I'll continue to browse the forum and blogs for some helpful hints, but at the moment, it seems to be: run it using sudo.
apt-get install gnomebaker
