I've ran VMWare Workstation 5 for some time now and it has the same

an issue as you need only install the appropriate kernel headers package
which matches your linux-image package. Debian testing is a lil more

The docs for squirrelmail say it depends on either apache2 or httpd

including apache. However, attempting to install squirrelmail on my server,
which runs apache, results in apt-get trying to install apache2. Why?
