Hello mailing list,
When I was downloading XFree 3.2 off of Debian's ftp site, I noticed a
new package that I don't wasn't in Debian 1.1. It was "xbooks" or something
like that. And it was huge. So I didn't download it.
What is "xbooks"?

First of all, thanks to all who answered my question regarding the CD.
I am running a basically off the shelf debian installation that is about 2
weeks old, so I haven't messed with it much. The first oddity is that,
upon close inspection of ps -aux, I note two copies of /usr/sbin/lpd

During the 'configure kernel' phase, loading nfs module never

Try ftp.crosslink.net when there are problems with ftp.debian.org .
We fixed the problem that made ftp.debian.org remove its files, we hope.
The Archive Maintenance In Progress means that the task that updates the

I think modules-2.0.0-14.deb has been withdrawn. -13 is in "frozen" now.
We have modules 2.1.8-1.deb in "unstable", but that may depend on the
currently-shaky 2.1.x kernel.

Try rebuilding your history file - IIRC this has worked for me (albeit

This leads to the question how to downgrade with dselect?

I think installing base-files clobbered your utmp and wtmp. There is a
new base-files in Incoming that fixes this.

I seem to have broke something. I don't really know or understand what
this error message is. Something to do with the syslog... I did recently
update it, to the one in frozen, about the beginning of last week.
Just noticed the error. Also, I've noticed that when I rebooted, it gave
me an error
I've installed the version that is in rex now. So far so good.

Actually I do not think that this is a so much uncommon job.

dselect won't downgrade a package. You need to use dpkg by hand. Just
download the .deb file, and do a dpkg -i .deb. It'll warn you
that you're downgrading the package, but it won't hurt anything
