So that means that if I use a Debian-Lite install I can't ever upgrade to a full installation from there? I missed the original post, but keeping a dpkg/dselect around for the eventual upgrade to full Debian (which may never occur) seems perfectly reasonable. *Dropping* the newbie into dpkg/dselect is probably less so, but when they grow conversant I see no reason to deny them dpkg/dselect, or to force them to reinstall. - -- Graham Hughes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> MIME OK, PGP preferred from stddisclaim import footer pgp_fingerprint = "E9 B7 5F A0 F8 88 9E 1E 7C 62 D9 88 E1 03 29 5B" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.3 Charset: noconv Comment: Processed by Mailcrypt 3.4, an Emacs/PGP interface iQCVAwUBM+VvLyqNPSINiVE5AQHA3gP8DJtxOB8Dev9MdyQLiFqq5Kz5wZg5pgf1 BMaOQCnsusog0ziNHW8KNF4OWnmsiaI4luhkd7NAqhUbT67wKVrEHRdg7+Vxj+lG YAVjMvf9mI3XRY+3gMznv46MCWRXx6Y+120VzpZNQiSP/2L2480HD0xi4jQGHDqq uKLb6GFnHA8= =uLcN -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
