sure will send later tomorrow, on the run currently. > Does apt-get dist-upgrade work? Does upgrading only apt and trying with > the new version of apt-get lead to anything? Is aptitude from squeeze > able to do the rest of upgrade? apt-get proposed something sensible, didn't check for gimp. It dislikes for some reason anjuta, don't remember why. we have several boxes to upgrade to squeeze, with very similar setup. I was just looking at the current improvements thanks to the xserver-xorg-core changes it no longer deinstalls xorg on apt-get dist-upgrade. didn't try some apt or aptitude first upgrade path as it seems for me unnatural. somehow i still am attached to simple upgrades on two goes (upgrade then dist-upgrade) and thus finding to break that into steps is an unnecessary burden.. thanks -- maks -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
