Yes, but repetative demands aside, tluxt does have a point - libkmid *does* depend on libglib1.3-12, which is not available anymore. Last week, when I had to rebuild my machine from bare metal, I tried what tluxt did, and found exactly the same problem. libglib1.3-13 doesn't (for whatever reason) satisfy the dependency (although it does say >= 1.3-12 ). At that time, I went trolling through the assorted mirrors and snagged a copy of the libglib1.3-12 deb and installed it. I didn't keep it around accidentally, since I'd pulled it into my temp directory, which I've setup to autoclean. I wasn't particularly worried, since I figured it would be fixed in a day or a few. I *still* figure that. After all, if I choose to track things besides stable, then what I get is subject to change on no notice, neh? Notice to Tluxt: Take advantage of this opportunity to check out one of the other window managers for a while. I've been mucking about with fluxbox recently... Thanks for all the hard work, everyone. .b -- Brian Bilbrey "The ships hung in the sky in [EMAIL PROTECTED] much the same way that bricks don't." www.orbdesigns.com Doug Adams, H2G
