> Here's what I think I did:
> 
> 1) Updated apt.conf and sources.list as per the top note on the change
> log page.
> 
> 2) apt-get update
> 
> 3) apt-get install apt apt-devel

> 4) [mark@Wizard mark]$ apt-get
> apt 0.5.5cnc4.1 for linux i386 compiled on Mar 24 2003 15:45:15
> 
> 5) apt-get update
> 
> 6) [root@Wizard root]# apt-get install planetccrma-core
