I used the Synaptic Package Manager gui to search for gnupg2 after adding the experimental repository in the Settings/repository using the formula given on the website link provided by Brian Minto (above) : deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian experimental main Amongst all the items listed then as available in experimental (after reload) there was nothing shown in Synaptic Package Manager under gnupg. > Here's what i see: > > 0 dkg@alice:~$ apt-cache policy gnupg2 > gnupg2: > Installed: 2.1.1-1 > Candidate: 2.1.1-1 > Version table: > *** 2.1.1-1 0 > 1 http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ experimental/main amd64 Packages > 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status > 2.0.26-4 0 > 500 http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie/main amd64 Packages > 200 http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ sid/main amd64 Packages > 0 dkg@alice:~$ > When I try your way from the command line, I get : $ apt-cache policy gnupg2 gnupg2: Installed: 2.0.22-3ubuntu1.1 Candidate: 2.0.22-3ubuntu1.1 Version table: 2.1.1-1 0 1 http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ experimental/main amd64 Packages *** 2.0.22-3ubuntu1.1 0 500 http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates/main amd64 Packages 500 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-security/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 2.0.22-3ubuntu1 0 500 http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages I'm not sure what this is telling me but I think it is indicating : 1. that 2.1.1 is available in experimental/main Packages. 2. that I have 2.0.22 installed 3. that latest available for my distro (candidate) is 2.0.22 Although I did, last summer, install 2.0.22 using the distro's software centre, I subsequently used the same software centre to remove it before building 2.0.26 on my own. So I don't know why the above indicates that 2.0.22 is installed. If I do gpg2 --version, it comes back clearly with 2.0.26. and enigmail clearly indicates that it has found the gpg2 that I built. So, moving on, if I do : apt-get -t experimental install gnupg2 will I get 2.1.1 installed together with its dependencies ? And returning to my original questions, since it is written that 2.0* and 2.1 cannot co-exist, I suppose that I shall have to remove manually everything connected with my 2.0.26 ? Thanks, Philip
