Thanks much for replying Magnus. The link above returns "no such
project" for me, perhaps a permissions issue?

I went ahead and did "aptitude update" and everything came down OK.

I couldn't find an INSTALL.debian file - but did find a README.debian,
but that doesn't seem to have anything other than information
pertaining to the original install, nothing about upgrades.

However after the "Setting up koha-common 3.2.5-1" came:

-----------------------
Installing new version of config files

Starting Zebra (one for each koha site)
and
Upgrading database schema (.03.001-3, then .04, .04) again one set per site.
-----------------------

The web interfaces for both admin and OPAC seem as normal, and About
Koha reports 3.02.05.000.

So it looks like Robin got the packaging stuff setup to automate all
the post-install steps?

If so, more kudos to him! (koha kudos heehee 8-)
