^^^^ Here's the Problem, my Debian boxes are tracking
lenny (d-m is 1.52), my laptop tracks Ubuntu (now at 9.04, d-m is
1.54ubuntu). My fault, I didn't recall the difference, when was it
introduced? I've been with Debian since the late '90s, but vanished
in '04.
OK, now I'm dist-upgrading one box to testing (squeeze?), downloading
~2600 packages took 1h49m, hours of installion still pending.

I fetched your key by KeyId from the keyservers, together with
anibal's approval it good enough for me though I still see a "no
trusted sigs" warning in contrast to anibal's mail. Waiting for >=1.60
being installed.

I'll have a look RSN :)

OK, but due to space restriction only in an NFS-mounted chroot
<shudder/>, the Indy will definitely run testing.

How big are these? I'm reluctant of seeing my ADSL line (350-380kB/s
down, < 100kB/s up) hogged while I need it. Given the anon checkout
is non-interactive, I could start a batch(1) job on my NFS server upon
request.
