[Gllug] Debian

[Jim Bailey]

Hi Stephen,

I not sure, not being a ximian user but I am fairly certain they will but 
there are dozens of links to non-official .deb sites here, you may find it 
here and lots of other goodies besides.

http://www.internatif.org/bortzmeyer/debian/apt-sources/

Be warned though this stuff could break your box it like it say on the 
site it is not official.

Peace Jim
