The revised version of the paper gives a sharper version of the counterexample, in the sense that it is generated by a set of cardinality 2^{\aleph_0} rather than 2^{\aleph_1}. This allows for a less set-theoretically technical argument, although the proof of primality is slightly trickierOperator AlgebrasFunctional AnalysisRings and Algebras46L05, 16G99A prime C*-algebra that is not primitivetext
