I would add general items to make sure the upgrade is smooth. Examples: * Check that you don't have to reconfigure anything by hand after upgrading to make it to work again. * Check that every "useful" package is properly updated (some packages changed the name, in some cases a dummy package is needed to help dselect). [ Really obsolete libraries which do no longer exist do not count as "useful" here ]. * Check that you don't have to force anything when using dselect. * Check that packages don't ask silly questions when upgrading, including things that have been asked before or things which are not important enough to be asked.
