Have you ever worked at a public institution? I recommend the experience... ;-) Seriously, the server is a debian etch (!) system. Also called "debian old-stable". Of course I have long since installed newer version of darcs, but since I am not root there I cannot put it into /usr/local, so I cannot completely rule out the possibility that other users still use the ancient /usr/bin/darcs and will now have problems when they darcs get. I do _not_ expect that this will lead to any serious trouble, as the latest stable darcs is just a small addition to the PATH away. Still, users should be warned that darcs-2.x is required.
