Actually I wanted -v304, I just assumed that the message from dpkg knew what
was correct, see ERROR in my original post.

Trying to avoid typos I tried the above on the command line all in
one line. I understand that that is right?

This resulted. For some reason the cut/paste breaks the command line
after the wget displacing the rest of the command line in the process  
I cannot explain that,but I assure you that the command line -was- input
as one line.

So where am I going wrong

BTW I did not test both the above commands as I managed to get -v304 before
I read your mail.
