If my guess is true and it grabs the first one it finds in the package list (I haven't checked the source -- no time :-/ ), that may well be a virtual package. You should probably ask the maintainer(s). -- Matthias Urlichs | noris network AG | http://smurf.noris.de/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
