Yes, but neither choice is entirely satisfactory; if I keep my version, I don't get any improvements the devs / maints have made, and if I choose the new one, I (may) have to redo my changes. It is therefore preferable to make changes through dpkg-reconfigure to avoid this problem. Celejar -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
