I know, never had such a lot of trouble with an update, breaking lots of things. And some of my debian systems are running for more than 10 years, always maintained by apt-get update/dist-upgrade over the years and debian versions, never reinstalled. > My guess is that > you got the new xprint but are missing some of the new libraries, so > Xprt is crashing at start up.

I doubt about this, at the moment the nvidia-kernel-modules are missing, even in unstable. So I cannot install the Xorg 7.0 server, most likely for a longer time :-(. I'm starting to downgrade the X11 packages and set them on hold. I more and more assume this bug is caused by an apt problem. I'm not able to reinstall the new xprint packages by now: xprint-common Version: 1:1.0.2-1 Depends: x11-common (>= 1:7.0.12) x11-common Version: 1:7.0.20 Conflicts: xserver-xorg (<< 1:7.0.12) I am stucked with xserver-xorg 6.9, so the new xprint packages never should have been installable on my system. So you may close this bug, as it probably disappears if xprint is installed with the correct dependencies.
