Sorry about the evolution-data-server issue. I had forgotten to complete the last step to fix that when I rebuilt the package yesterday. If you install debathena-workstation now, it should work. With regards to bash, we seem to be managing to force our customized bash on you, which we hadn't realized was out of date. I've just uploaded an updated version for Hardy, so upgrading should give you a version that matches what's in the Ubuntu repositories. >> * PRINTING DOESN'T WORK to the ashdown printer.

Printing is totally in a state of flux right now. It seems like ghuson is going to push had to move to a CUPS infrastructure, which can't support the authenticated printing to the ashdown printer that is currently required. If you want to override this for the time being, you should be able to install the (unhacked) lprng package, which will replace the debathena-lprng package. For the long term, though, it seems that the word is coming down from on high that authenticated printing is on its way out. - Evan
