I have indeed lived under a rock, not participating nor reading any of the Debian public fora up until now. Sorry for my ignorance on this issue. > and probably shouldn't be using anything other than stable. You are probably right. I developed the bad habit of considering "testing" as stable back at the later stages of when Woody was "testing", and "stable" was more like "green with fungus". ;-) Anyway, thanks for informing me. Thanks also to the other respondents, who pointed at dpkg-divert, which was the kind of solution I was initially looking for. My problem turned out in the end to be better solved by doing "apt-get remove g++" followed with "apt-get install g++/stable", as indicated by Marc.. ~# Morten -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
