Packages are only being upgraded to the latest version of etch-backports (whether or not the version currently installed on the system was pulled from etch-backports) and there are no occurrences of "stable" in my sources.list. If "stable" were in there, it'd be lots more packages for the upgrade. Regards, -Roberto -- Roberto C. Sánchez http://people.connexer.com/~roberto http://www.connexer.com
