Hi,

We noticed that m12-182-9.mit.edu isn't automatically updating
when new Athena patch releases become available.  It appears to think
that it is in the middle of an update already.  The easiest way to fix
this is for you to log into the machine as root and use your favorite
editor to remove the last line of /etc/athena/version (The line that
says "version Update").  Once you have done this, m12-182-9.mit.edu
will once again take patch releases when they are available and no one
is logged in.
