Yep, it worked.

'deborphan --guess-all' gives a list of mainly lib files which it is a hassle to figure out the function of in case you delete something important. In the end it comes down to working through /usr/share or lists of deb pkg's I may have downloaded in my notes or on the Debian web site.

I am thinking of changing 'unstable' to 'stable' in /etc/apt/sources.list and doing another dist-upgrade. I have been warned against mixing stable and unstable - would that concievably be a problem here ? Adam > Preben -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
