Re: first install of RefDB .debs

The libdbi drivers are now up-to-date and should install correctly.

The Debian install instructions for RefDB can be found at 
<http://refdb.sourceforge.net/install.html#debian>.  There is a link on 
that page to the libdbi Debian install instructions at 
<http://libdbi.sourceforge.net/download.html>.

Essentially it boils down to specifying the correct repositories in 
'/etc/apt/sources.list'.

RefDB (pre-release):
    deb http://refdb.sourceforge.net/debian/release <distro> main
where <distro> is replaced by 'testing' or 'unstable'

RefDB (svn latest):
    deb http://refdb.sourceforge.net/debian/svn <distro> main
where <distro> is replaced by 'testing' or 'unstable'

** Specify only one of the above repositories or you may confuse you 
package management tool **

libdbi:
    deb http://libdbi.sourceforge.net/debian <distro> main
where <distro> is replaced by 'testing' or 'unstable'

Once you update your package management tool it should be as simple as 
installing package 'refdb'.

Good luck, and let me know how it goes.

David.
