I can't explain it, but after reading the same threads, i changed my machine from "testing" to "sarge" (planning to run it on stable when sarge becomes so), and i got similar behaviour. I installed them anyway (using apt-get dist-upgrade), and things haven't broken yet, but it has got me curious. -- Paul <http://paulgear.webhop.net> -- If at first you *do* succeed, carefully check your success metrics for accuracy. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
