[PlanetCCRMA] Can't apt-get planetccrma-audiovideoapps-develfor fc4

[David Slimp]

Did you save a copy of the new planetccrma.list file that got created?
I'd be interested in seeing what 'diff' has to say.  Perhaps you should
have kept the newer version?

I'm assuming you are saying that you already did a full/fresh FC4 install
before trying all this other stuff, right?  ... I recently posted a thread
"from zero to DAW in 2 hours"... which shows exact steps I took, and
had flawless install/setup.  Have you looked that over?
