It's because Debian has finally implemented the ``testing'' distributions. It is a distributions sitting between the stable (potato) and the new unstable (sid). New package goes into unstable, and 14 days later, if no bugs were found it goes into testing (woody). For more details, consult the debian-devel archive (search for ``testing to be implemented on ftp-master''). So you need to change woody to unstable (of sid) in your sources.list and to do and apt-get update. Bye -- DEFRESNE Sylvain
