Ha! You think if this would be all that is needed, I wouldn't have already committed a change to Jason and get it included? :) I promise that your version of apt is broken. For example, it doesn't have the right architecture set (it will try to download i386 packages). See http://bugs.debian.org/39227. Brent was reporting some other stuff I forgot about, and we have to check if it can compile the GUI. But I can check if I can hack a minimal apt-get indeed. Maybe Brents problem was in another frontend or so... Thanks, Marcus -- `Rhubarb is no Egyptian god.'
