Due to changes made in upstream Debian, a new apt-antix deb will arrive shortly.
You should be prompted to accept new changes or not.

Upgrades to several antiX apps – mainly improved translations – have hit the repos.
This is normal and should cause no issues.

Just a heads up that I have updated eudev in testing/sid.
This version is exactly the same as the 3.2.7 version, except we now blacklist nvidiafb and rivafb.

Please post in the forums if this causes issues.
