No. > Is there anything i can do to avoid the problem next time I do an upgrade? Did you use repositories other then debian.org repositories for your Debian version? What programm did you use for the upgrade? My advise: use apt-get. Is this Debian stable? While doing an upgrade, you will see a list with packages what are upgraded or removed. Read it, and stop when you see strange things happening.
