OK, small dbmail problem big debian problem.
I link the dbmail source into the sources.list but it's not able to identify the 2.2.6 version.

-- for now I just downloaded the .debs directly.


Now I have a big dbmail problem.
the 2.2.6 packages are for i386 and I'm unable to install them:
dpkg: error processing dbmail_2.2.6-2_i386.deb (--install):
package architecture (i386) does not match system (amd64)
dpkg: error processing dbmail-pgsql_2.2.6-2_i386.deb (--install):
package architecture (i386) does not match system (amd64)
Errors were encountered while processing:
dbmail_2.2.6-2_i386.deb
dbmail-pgsql_2.2.6-2_i386.deb

And I don't see any amd64 packages on the site.

One option is to compile my own. I'm inclined to avoid this since I don't want this box to become something with a group of exceptions at the core of the package management. My experience has been that this results in a variety of upgrade issues, like I do them too late or do something stunningly dumb.

So I'm looking at the only available option right now being to use the 2.2.5 from Debian. But before I do this, I would like to make sure that my problems with 2.2.6 aren't just be not having enough coffee this morning.


Or do I circumvent all of this via deb-src? (which I've never tried)
