Tell me how girl. Mine highest numbered version in /var/cache/apt/archives is dated Feb 14 for a 44.0.x.bpo, but the installed one I put back in yesterday from the repos is a 37.7.1, whose date is indeed yesterday. It seems to be working, but why is it not the newer version? ls -l output of archives: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 39445644 Mar 18 22:45 iceweasel_38.7.1esr-1~deb7u1_i386.deb -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 42916910 Feb 14 18:13 iceweasel_44.0.2-1~bpo70+1_i386.deb It seems to me I ought to be looking at an about screen that says 44.0.2-1. What do I put in /etc/apt/sources.list to gain access to the newer one? Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
