Thanks. I've pinned udev. Any hint on how to avoid this kind of thing in the future with some other package upgrade? I was using synaptic, added testing to the repository after installing sarge, and then chose "Mark All Upgrades". I thought that part of "debian way" of package management was preventing a package being installed without its dependencies being present or at least installed at the same time. Or is this something peculiar to a kernel dependency? (Or do I just have the wrong conception of the whole scheme?) Andy -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
