Huh, firefox is a new version of firebird and phoenix, not? So why not conflict the old ones away? Only thing is downgrades won't work because the old firebird/phoenix packages don't rename back, but that's everything. And smooth upgrades maybe by having dummy packages for firebird that simply depend firefox? But, I don't know much about this {phoenix,fire{bird,fox}}-stuff, so if I hit the nail completely wrong, ignore me :) --Jeroen -- Jeroen van Wolffelaar Jeroen@wolffelaar.nl (also for Jabber & MSN; ICQ: 33944357) http://Jeroen.A-Eskwadraat.nl
