I did that, updated the list, and that worked fine, however when I chose to override the version of kde-base (from 3.1.4 to 3.1.95), Synaptic failed to download all the packages. I guess I could wait a while and try again. You didn't say whether you use Synaptic or not, I'm wondering if the default settings are sufficient for what I want to do? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFAHWsy/S+VsB9RMKgRAinUAJ9DasWTpV6a4b1AIP6dr0H7qsWidwCfcwhi vs2oberyxkcMiuqiWWp/hOE= =Wcko -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
