Re: Updating from 4.0_r5 to 4.0_r6 ?



"apt-cache policy dpkg" gives the following output :
dpkg:
  Installed: 1.13.26
  Candidate: 1.13.26
  Version table:
 *** 1.13.26 0
        500 http://ftp.nl.debian.org etch/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

        500 cdrom://[Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 r5 _Etch_ - Official i386

And "dpkg -l dpkg" gives the following output :
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
