[ ... ] As far as I know, java related packages are in the non-free area, so this cdrom is not "official". You would have to complain to whom you purchased the CDs. To be sure, you may compare those bad packages with the ones in ftp.debian.org or any of its mirrors. > -Where is the file that I edit for a total path change in debian? It depends on the shell.

In general, it is *much* better to use Debian packages for upgrading a Debian system. XFree 3.3.1 was not available at the time Debian 1.3 was released but now it is available in unstable. [ Of course, unstable is still unstable ]. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.3ia Charset: noconv iQCVAwUBNE4m4yqK7IlOjMLFAQFCAAP+P7eeJ1NsJxEtOQTIjgfsAdPw19zf4Uah DBl1lxSSXs06AH6EluSiVEwnaTnOcfvx5KsbKkRG0KTf9w89/Llrt49gGA3oh9l7 HANUtwlbx0HtuoOaeE9v5FqPsQgmbvYOpgz7kyLqeF8spnPAuHzHwI0KD+3cE/Aq DnQKtJwBF0E= =xuWE -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
