For the oldstable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in version 2.8.1-1+etch1. For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in version 2.9.1-2+lenny1. For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 2.9.1-4.1, and will migrate to the testing distribution (squeeze) shortly. We recommend that you upgrade your libxerces2-java package. Upgrade instructions - -------------------- wget url will fetch the file for you dpkg -i file.deb will install the referenced file. If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for sources.list as given below: apt-get update will update the internal database apt-get upgrade will install corrected packages You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the footer to the proper configuration.
