Hi Jonathan, Thanks for the reply. I'm a bit of a beginner with linux so I have simply followed the instructions on the web page. I think (looking at makefile) that it uses "make install", but I cannot be certain. The package manager certainly has no problem recognising my manually installed version, but it thinks it is older than the repository one - rather than newer as is the case. If I need to change a version number somewhere, in which of the many source files should I do that? And is it simply a version number that the package manager compares?

Only by the latter can the package manager recognise your manually installed version of Gregorio, and I'm sure you can change the deb version number when you invoke it.

However, the ubuntu system wants to install its older version - convinced it it later than mine. Running "gregorio -V" shows I have v2.1, whereas the ubuntu repository is v2.0 - but the package manager sees my version as 1.0-1 and the repository version as 2.0-1.1 Is there some way to make ubuntu know that my version is the latest and I don't want to "update" backwards?
