That's my version too from Debian Mint and that's based on the latest 
Debian I think.  Any way Ctl c and v work for me.  I just gave it a 
spin.  Take care as you will have two U1s, R1s components etc,  so you 
need to run whatever it was that renumbers with the force to reset from 
scratch.

By the way DJ how do the distros update their repositories?  Debian are 
supposed to have checked it before making it freely available, thus 
Debian is more stable but behind on any fixes and feature.  In any case 
they will not be able to check gEDA much other than it runs without 
being a layout artist.  Ian.
