Re: Upgrade Potato to Woody (3.0)

2002-05-17 Thread Lukas Ruf
Hi,

thanks for all your hints.  Finally, I got it working by using the
approach of installing manually
libstdc++2.10-dev_1%3a2.95.4-7_i386.deb

Do now ask me why, it suddenly worked after this...

Thanks again,

 Have you tried manually installing the apt and/or apt-utils package
 from Woody?  I seem to recall seeing this as a recommended step prior to
 attempting the upgrade from Potato to Woody.

Dear all, 

after I have sent this message to debian-testing, I resend I to this
list.  Maybe anyone here has any idea.

The upgrade was from 2.2r to 3.0 -- now, I can use neither dselect:
  onizuka root 145 (local/sbin): dselect
  Segmentation fault
nor apt-get
  onizuka root 146 (local/sbin): apt-get update
  E: Method ftp has died unexpectedly!
  E: Tried to dequeue a fetching object

dpkg still works and I can use the network .-)

Has anyone any idea?

Thanks for any help!

Dear all, related to my problem, I get the following errors:


nizuka root 105 (cache/old_apt): apt-get update
E: Method http has died unexpectedly!
E: Tried to dequeue a fetching object
E: Tried to dequeue a fetching object
E: Tried to dequeue a fetching object
E: Tried to dequeue a fetching object
E: Tried to dequeue a fetching object
E: Tried to dequeue a fetching object

Searching the web led me to a message with the same problem.  However,
no answer was given to that question in the archive.

Does anyone has any idea what I could do?

Thanks in advance,

Lukas

 Dear all,
 
 /usr/bin/update-menus
 
 creates a segmentation fault. So, I cannot install anything further. 
 Re-installing menu_2.1.5-10.1_i386.deb has not helped either.  I
 re-installed perl etc.  But no success.  
 
 Can anyone give me any hint?  Thanks in advance,
 
 Lukas
