If you: a) Have a custom version with custom changes, installing any updates from our= package repositories might overwrite those changes; or b) You just want to upgrade to the latest testing version after having alread= y installed a test version from the unstable or testing repository? In case of a), the only way is to build your own updates that you host somewh= ere and you make sure you have all your own changes in your updates. Does this help? -Michael --===============4109943175659428642==--
