No, it's Edgy. I tried it again to be sure; not as weird this time - must have hit the wrong button last time in aptitude. Anyway, the problem is libgl-mesa-dev which depends on the exact version6.5.1~20060817 . It wants me to remove libmesa-dev or downgrade. Last time I might have hit remove which I imagine would have caused it to suggest removing many more packages. (of course the solution was just to re-install the older package that I previously downloaded here)

Why aptitude says it can upgrade libgl-mesa-dri from 20060817-0ubuntu3 to 20060817-0ubuntu3 is beyond me.

Thanks for your help! Hopefully someday this will be included so everybody can benefit from the fix!
