I believe Magnus wanted to know what happened to the Debian package. >From my understanding it was axed because of a restrictive license, essentially requiring permission from Columbia U. before being redistributed. I believe CU had a proposed change to the license to make it less restrictive but I don't know if they finalized it or not. I did see a message from the former maintainer that you can pick up a deb file from the URL http://master.debian.org/~vaidhy/kermit/ckermit If further info is desired you can go to the Debian website and search the debian-devel mailing list for "kermit" to find out what the specifics are. I think there's even a contribution to the thread by THE Kermit guy, Frank da Cruz. Gary
