I use Centos with yum and the rpm-packaged version and it updates via the system yum mechanism like everything else. I assume the ubuntu package works the same way with apt-get/synaptic or whatever the system uses. It is a lot easier to administer everything in one place instead of having to update every application separately. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com
