Ben,
OK. Stick with me on this. I'm very much in the user category here.
I've been a Linux user for many years - but never a developer. My
employment is as a developer using .NET on the Windows platform. So I'm
a bit unfamiliar with some of the concepts here.
However, spurred on by your reply, I did this:
linux:/home/peter # rug update mono-1.1-official

So have I just lost one package (mono-data-sqlite?) or did I lose some
more as well? Without going through each package in detail, it seems
that there were 20 to install, but only 13 made it. What do I have to
do to recover?
I'll try the other channels and post any interesting results.
But thanks for spurring me on to have another go. I don't really want
to overwrite my system if I can help it.
Cheers
Peter
