Thanks for the tip.

However, can you clue me into wajig?
It just reinstalled 1.5.1-1 when I the wajig line up there.

I tried putting the following in sources.list:
deb ftp://ftp.us.debian.org unstable/main Packages

But that didn't work, and gave the following errors on apt-get update:
...
Err ftp://ftp.us.debian.org unstable/main/Packages Packages
  Unable to fetch file, server said 'Failed to open file.  ' [IP:
128.101.80.133 21]
...
Ign ftp://ftp.us.debian.org unstable/main/Packages Release

I think I'm missing something here.
Thanks,
