I'm running sarge and got exactly the same error when updating this weekend. It's apparently because the Gnome 2 control center is not in testing yet.

Sure would be nice if Gnome were upgraded a little more coherently ;) Mark Garland Gainesville, Florida U.S.A. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
