Yah, I figured I'd got it wrong but didn't take time to look it up. Oh, well - thanks to you, I now sit corrected, proving that you're at least as useful as a pair of orthopedic skivvies. ;-> (orthopedantic?) I should mention that I (think I) heard that some very early versions of apt-spy would rewrite your sources.list file without saving the previous version, so if you're running an ancient Debian box, heads up. (I've never seen one had that problem, though...) _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
