http://blog.linuxmint.com – In the latest Update Pack to Linux Mint Debian (UP4) released in March, MATE 1.2 and Cinnamon 1.4 were made available as well as an option called “gnome2-frozen” which allowed users to stick to Gnome 2 and skip the Update Pack altogether. Moving forward and in preparation for Update Pack 5, this repository is now discontinued. An rsync archive was made available for users and mirrors interested in acquiring a copy of the content of Update Pack 3. This archive will remain open for a couple of weeks and is available at the following address: rsync://debian.linuxmint.com::gnome2-froz (Distributions)
