Actually, I don't have woody in sources.list. I've never had it there ... I did install one woody package by downloading it off the Web site and using dpkg -i. I believe that was webmin-postfix. Everything else that's not in potato has come from:
deb-src http://www.braincells.com/debian potato/ deb http://www.braincells.com/debian potato/ Well, that's not entirely true. I did install module CPAN and it did somehow add Perl 5.6.1 to my system. Not really sure how it did that -- I don't think it did this in a Debian-specific way. Could that be messing me up? Thanks! Jen ----- Original Message ----- From: Jaldhar H.
