Hi, I've done some investigation and below is my finding. For example, I'd
like to upgrade icewm package from 1.0.1-1(potato) to 1.0.4-1(woody). I
can find it under /dists/woody/main/binary-i386/x11/ subdirectory. I also
downloaded /dists/woody/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz and the rev. of icewm
shown in Packages.gz is 1.0.1-1 which is for potato but not woody. No
wonder that I can't use "apt-get install icewm" to upgrade it. The
contents of Packages.gz doesn't match the actual packages under woody! Is
this normal ? Jason
