I had promised myself never go through the frustration of answering
any of your messages...

But anyway...

of course 180.60 is the latest version of nvidia-glx-180, it's call
180 for a reason.

185.18.14 is the version for the nvidia-glx-185 package

NVIDIA-GLX-185 != NVIDIA-GLX-180

Since when is "bleeding" == "testing"
Where did I *ever* mention "bleeding" anywhere regarding drivers 185.18.14
