These sorts of temporary inconveniences are why I switched back to using Debian "stable". I'm not complaining about "testing" and "unstable", but I just want to let people know that "stable" is a place where packages don't usually "disappear" from the repositories. If you want to help test the next release(s) of Debian, or want the newest packages (with the potential for some occasional aggravation) use "testing" or "unstable". If you want nice, boring consistency, and predictability, use "stable", and take a couple of steps back from the leading edge... :) -- Mitch Wiedemann Webmaster - Ithaca Free Software Association http://ithacafreesoftware.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
