Hi, Tim.

I downloaded your debs from:

   http://nebc.nerc.ac.uk/downloads/bl7_only

And re-installed them on my laptop manually using "gdebi"

I think it's time to upgrade the NBX's - We are planning to move them 
all to Milan soon anyway, and build an OpenStack cloud to run virtual 
NBX's instead. For now, I'll leave them running Bio-Linux 6.

Bye,

   Tony.
