Which indicates that dillo is *not* in Lenny.

I don't recall doing anything special to install dillo
from any other source, but my lack of recall may also
be indicative of personal wetware memory problems .... :-)

It's possible that this particular installation of Lenny
actually started out as Etch that already had Dillo installed
and then later Etch was upgraded to Lenny ....

Dillo was in Lenny, but was pulled due to what some considered a serious
security flaw. As I understand it, once Lenny was frozen, the bug was
found and deemed too serious to fix before the release, so the package
was pulled instead:
