libneon25, or libneon26?



I have an Etch system that I keep up to date with nightly downloads using cron-apt and doing a manual 'aptitude upgrade' every few days. A few days ago I noticed that OOo was being held back. A little research showed that it needed the installation of libneon25. But I already have libneon26 installed. Aptitude shows it as being automatically installed, so it is aware of the package, but says that it is unused and will be removed. Why dos aptitude want to remove libneon26 and install libneon25? Is there any way to use what I have, or do I need to let aptitude downgrade libneon?
