Bearing in mind that the packages I'm referring to are only in experimental, and the unstable line means that experimental installs can pull in unstable dependencies, and I can intenionally install unstable packages, but my default is testing. I'll give that a shot, although the problem is _NOT_ at the stage of installing, `apt-cache policy kfind` does not acknowledge the later version's existance in the repo (can someone on i386 verify that there are builds of the .72 version in the experimental repo?) Cheers EDIT: I accidentally posted off list to jamie, and it's looking like there may only be builds of .72 for amd64 can anyone confirm? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFIKS0CLeTfO4yBSAcRAmKWAJ9I4v/pKbbz4cfQ5XB6GtByR6aKkwCdFwrC 2mmJjiI8B7V9bS7b+G6HQ38= =fn3H -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
