Firstly, I always Download then install from local directory. I was talking
about downloading.

Next, ..Ok, I missed the change in the way current, test work now.  I just
got used to going straight to experimental and expecting the available
current packages to be present also.

But I still cannot select any source packages, -- that neat little X will
not present itself in the source select box.

Also, install from local directory still does not work, its been broken for
some time now.

However, if no one else is having any problems with building a working
setup, then something might be broken with my setup :[  (I am still not
confident in my build script/setup yet)

Regards Trevor
