Is it also available for amd64 'cos I'm using the version provided by
Andreas Weber .... from www.os-works.com/view/debian/:
 Andreas Weber provides ready-to-install Debian/amd64 versions of our
 Debian packages. Just add the lines

 deb-src http://www.os-works.com/debian testing main
 deb http://www.kanotix.lxserv.de/debian ./

 to your /etc/apt/sources.list. Note, that os-cillation doesn't
 officially support these packages. Please contact Andreas Weber if you
 experience problems with those packages. 

I'm happy to test, if the amd64 packages are available.

Regards
Clive
