I don't think that the unstable version is necessarily compatible with the stable version. In fact, I recall recently on the debian-multimedia mailing list that there was a new version in unstable. So I suspect what happened is that your frontend got updated, and it refused to communicate with your stable backend, because the databases have different schemas. -Rob -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
