Hi John, unfortunately due to some package version/conflict problems between 2.4.26 and 2.4.27 the new package I mentioned above hasn't made it to sarge much less sid. The change in the new package is as per the code you pasted when you opened this bug. I guess the best thing is for you to manually patch it for now. -- Horms
