Hello, In the course of trying to apt-get install the latest slimserver off of Slimdevices' repositories, apt-get complains about dependency errors on libfile-next-perl[1]. So I try to install libfile-next-perl, but and that package itself doesn't work[2]. My /etc/apt/sources file[3] lists Slimdevices' repositories, and I've been stuck on the 7.0a1 since September of 2006[5]. How can I update my slimserver to the latest release? I see from the posts here that many of my issues with it have probably been addressed by now, and it's kind of frustrating being unable to actualize that on my system :) I appreciate your help!
