That is NOT going to upgrade the 0.9.9 extension, no matter how much you mess around with it. The extension was created from source, compiled to install in a specific directory completely removed (except for "apps" file) from the version included with DSL.  The deb package has been compiled to install into the standard /usr/* directories.  The only way to upgrade the dsl extension is to compile fluxbox to install into /opt/fluxbox.

I suppose it's been long enough...I've been using 0.9.10 on my workstation since the day it was released, with no big problems.  I'll build your upgrade this afternoon.
