Without it, apt won't do it. In this case to a debian 9.4 (stretch) install. After that done and trinity is installed, I fully expect to be able to have mc copy the whole corpus of email from wheezy's /home/gene/Mail directory to the new directory on the stretch drive. With my .fetchmailrc, .procmailrc and .spamassassin configs in place, it should just work. apt-key ????? Ah, found it, all I have to do is reboot to stretch, and find this web page: <https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/Debian_Trinity_Repository_Installation_Instructions> -- Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
