Need to get 162MB/179MB of archives. After unpacking 10.1MB will be freed. Do you want to continue? [Y/n] ================================================================ I defineately want to keep gnucash. I seem to have this problem after adding unstable and testing distrributions to sources.list or removing them. (I had to go to unstable to get the later gnucash). Has this been reported as a bug? xdm is also on list to be removed. I have also lost the 'exit window' option on menu so I cannot log out. Hos do I get it bacik? Cheers Stephen Brown
