Dear Mark,

that can be it - I did not installed usrmerge on Daedalus manually and proceeded directly by updating sources.list.

So its my user error -> sorry for false report.

Totally agree on need to specify the correct steps in big, bold text in the Release notes. Lot of people will ignore/forget it anyway...

Regards,
sachy
