Ah. I didn't think to check the repository there, and it doesn't exist, as I proved when I tried to install it. However, it appears that while the package doesn't exist, the listing slipped into the DeltaH-security main package list[1]. Seems like if it doesn't exist then it shouldn't show up in the package manager either. Probably a low priority issue, though. Tor [1] Please note that packages firefox-3.0 and others are also listed, but not copied here.
