do i have to think that  gnome is still on maintenance or on évolution 
(upgrade ?)

when will gnome be operational again?

thanks for your advice / troubleshooting .
sid is fresh, I've just installed it.
for gnome , the apps-menu application is obsolete and has been removed .

i don't understand anything anymore .
