Hello, all. I've finally started running Debian in my home infrastructure, and I'm looking to expand its role. I have a couple questions. I have Sarge running, and there's a package I particularly need: POSE. There appears to be a POSE package in Woody, but not in Sarge. Does this mean that POSE has been dropped and won't appear in future releases? A related question... I downloaded the .deb files for POSE and its dependencies, and I installed each of them with 'dpkg -i'. They now show up in dselect. I was wondering if there's a safe and reasonable way to be able to access packages from another release automatically, without having to wrangle the .deb files by hand...? Thanks, all. -- Mason Loring Bliss (( "In the drowsy dark cave of the mind dreams mason@acheron.middleboro.ma.us )) build their nest with fragments dropped https://bliss.dyndns.org/ (( from day's caravan." - Rabindranath Tagore
