still having the same problem but: dselect available website packages search says : says : fetchmail 5.8-14-1 5.8.14-2 fetchmailconf 5.8.14-2 5.8.14-2 fetchmail-ssl 5.8.11-1 5.8.14-2 this still mucks up the dependencies for fetchmail and fetchmailconf. there is a similar issue with xmame and xmame-x, the versions are different, and so the dependencies cannot be fufilled. Any help would be much appreciated.
