PHP4 was removed from testing and unstable several months ago: http://wiki.debian.org/PHP4Removal Continuing to use PHP4 in testing/unstable will require workarounds. The libphp-adodb dependency is currently unversioned and installing an older package works, as you have already seen. libphp-adodb versions less than 5.05-1 are not available in testing and unstable which would render the package unusable for the majority of users. -- ---------------------------- Michael Schultheiss E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
