...but something else must be going on as well: That change warned about in that accidentally silenced NEWS entry is way old, and what I did yesterday on multiple machines was update from 1:2.1.7-2. Seems to me that if I chose in earlier updates to keep my settings (as I suspect many would do, since that worked just fine!) the update process should have warned me about changing that file - it didn't! So regardless of that NEWS bug (which I have now reopened) I believe something is wrong here too. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
