Thank you for any responses. I managed to solve the problem by: 1. Add the following line to the file etc/apt/sources.list : deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian wheezy main 2. Then run the commands apt-get update apt-cache search firebird apt-get install firebird2.5-super dpkg-reconfigure firebird2.5-super -- Steve Faleiro -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
