Thanks, Andrei.  I hadn't realised that the package move from Sid to testing 
is gradual.  I thought that the whole bang shoot went up and then had to be 
stabilised.  I have kept well away from a new testing because it is always so 
unstable!!  I clearly need to go into it more.  Maybe even install it on a 
testbed machine so that I can watch the process.
