I think you caught the server during a brief window today when it was "lagged" and under load. Apologies for the inconvenience. Before reading my email just now - I was about to deal with that issue to prevent it in future.

There is an un-documented newlinq feature... where you CAN rollback to a previous version. Here's what you need to do.

1. Uninstall phpmyadmin.
2. Check for new packages
3. Start the install process again - but dont actually do the full install...
4. During step 3 - you will see the newlinq install URL. Copy that to a notepad window.
5. Press back - and go back to the install page, and select manual install
6. Paste in the URL from #4 ... You can manually change the version number to any previous version of that package.
7. Proceed to install as normal.

Hope that helps.

Greg.
