Hi all,
on a machine a self-signed certificate expired recently. It was created
via mod-ssl-makecert (according to

(it shall have a new expiration date). For example, I

On a potato machine I'm trying to apt-get the sources of the latest

Is 1:3.0.2p1-9 considered greater than 1:3.4p1-0.0potato1 because it

I use mutt which uses urlview to present a list of url's in a message.

to go.
