Most of the time if you were able to install the package then most likely you already added the repository to a sources.list file so the package one because a second one. And if you didn't install a sources.list line then it is probably because you didn't want to. I would be perfectly okay if there were an additional meta-package that included dependencies and whose sole purpose was to set up a sources.list line. Then I would avoid the installation of that package and say, well, it is probably useful for some poor unfortunate soul. But I would blacklist it. > especially the truly Evil(tm) autoupdate in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d > :-) Such as? I don't have anything there. What package is it in? Just purge it. Bob
