Thanks. This worked great. It upgraded my BIND to version 8.2.3-0.potato and also upgraded a bunch of other important-looking packages. Version 8.2.3 seems to be immune to the Lion Worm so I feel better now. I did a 'dselect', Update, Select, Install instead of the 'apt-get update; apt-get upgrade' that you suggested. I'm used to 'dselect'. I assume the results were the same.
Why did I have to do this at all? Wouldn't it make sense to have security.debian.org in the sources.list file by default? I had assumed that by running dselect occasionally that I was getting all the latest urgent security patches. At the very least I think there is a user education problem here. Either that or I'm just dense.
