I've had a poke in the slim devices repository and the libpath-class-perl package there has the same version as the one from universe but is different which looks to be confusing apt. It looks like the version locking in synaptic is just using the version. Pinning in apt can be more complicated, including where the package comes from. http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-apt-get.en.html#s-pin or 'man apt_preferences' Robert ________________________________________________________ Robert McWilliam [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.ormiret.com Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine. -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
