exim is now in the Packages file, and installing works. Now I just have
to figure out how to map the caps lock key to the control key.
(I found the fnset program to turn off the need to use command-fn-fX,

Exim does not exist in the Contents file in the
dist/woody/main/binary-powerpc/ directory on the servers.
What is wrong and what can we do to speed up fixing it? I'd really like
to install Debian on my iBook. I've had enough problems for one
