I'm sorry to have missed the front of this thread.

First, the version in stable is correct. The fact that an older version is
in unstable is a minor problem with the archive management.

Second, this version was tested on a "fresh" install by myself and at
least one other tester, with no problems, so I am confused as to why/how
this problem got started.

Aside from complaining about the older version, does the package install?

Sorry if I'm asking for a previous explanation...
