I tried the following (on squeeze): - adding "deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ lenny main contrib non-free" to sources.list, run "aptitude update" - start aptitude, search for emacs22-common-non-dfsg: it appears in "New Packages -> editors -> non-free", but NOT in "Not installed Packages -> editors -> non-free" Maybe it can be configured somewhere in aptitude, or it's a new property in aptitude squeeze? However, I have no lenny at hand to check... Regards, Axel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
