   Hi Salvatore,   
      
   Thank you for your reply and bissect explanation.   
      
   As a quick top-post Reply: 6.18.2-1~exp1 works for me \o/   
      
   I think, then, the bissection isn't worth it. But if you need it for the   
   record, just ask me.   
      
   Thanks,   
     Benoît
