        This is the version shipped with Debian 5.0 (codename: Lenny),
        which became oldstable after the release of Debian 6.0
        (codename: Squeeze) in February, 2011.  The users are expected
        to upgrade (e. g., by using # apt-get dist-upgrade; some changes
        to APT's sources.list.d/ or sources.list may be necessary.)

        The version included in the latest stable version of Debian
        (6.0.3; released October, 2011) is 2.8.8dev.5-1 (i. e., Debian's
        variant 1 of the upstream Lynx 2.8.8dev.5.)

        This version comes with Debian Wheezy, which is the current
        testing version of Debian.  To install it on the latest Debian
        stable a backport may be necessary.  (I will consider making one
        for my TODO list, but I surely won't make any promises now.)
