Ah, the joys of using the "stable" version of Debian - I'm so far behind in
version numbers that I need a time machine to catch up.  I did install version
0.65 manually, but have had no reason to upgrade beyond that, and hadn't spotted
that the 0.70rc version had made it into production.

Upgrades now in progress....!

Best Wishes,

Paul.
