Thankyou so much marc for the reply :-)
In the mean time what would be the best way to update all packages to
the recent versions?
all right there might not be a way to do that now.
But Some thing Strange here.
I wanted to update the gpgme package from gnupg-1.4.5 -> gnupg-1.4.5p1
During that process it degraded curl-7.15.5 -> curl-7.15.4
So after everything was over I tried to update curl back to curl-7.15.5
But it doesnot do that!
it says there is no curl-7.15.5
i wonder how I got it installed in the first place then. a bit puzzling.
Could some one please give me a clue?
