Are you running apt 0.5.3?

What am I doing wrong?? Even if you currently had unstable installed, by pinning unstable below 100 you shouldn't be updating to it. ciao, der.hans -- # [EMAIL PROTECTED] home.pages.de/~lufthans/ www.DevelopOnline.com # I chose to use the kernel sources as my documentation. ;-) # -- Kevin Buettner
