Good luck, Bill PLEASE CC: [EMAIL PROTECTED] as I am not on the list. I have a similiar problem, but I am running Woody, recently updated from a pre-beta installation. I have 240 packages held back, and none of the solutions suggested here works. apt-get dist-upgrade still does nothing beyond giving a long list of held-back packages. However, apt-get install package_name seems to work for individual packages. I tried a2ps and aalib. Do I have to install each package by hand? Surely there an automatic way to complete the upgrade from pre-beta-Woody to Stable-Woody? David -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

From time to time you need to dist-upgrade in unreleased distributions, as 'upgrade' will never install or remove any packages, only upgrade currently installed ones. This is one of those times, as libc6 now depends on libdb1-compat. -- Colin Watson [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
