Hi Drew, That sounds like a good fix, thanks. The anki package is no longer in testing but it is in unstable. I don't know what your apt setup is (you could look at /etc/apt/sources.list and the like), so you might be picking it up from the unstable distribution. Alternatively, if you haven't updated your sources in a while, you might still have an old copy of the package index still referring to anki. The main Debian archive does not distinguish between different distributions (stable/testing/unstable), so you would still be able to find this package. Meanwhile, I still do not think it is in the best interests of Debian's users to allow a version of anki that is over 2 years old into stable, as it will then be over 4 years old by the time the next stable arrives; by then, upstream's servers might be incompatible with version 2.1.15. It's an unfortunate situation, but one I am not in a position to fix. Best wishes, Julian
