I had absolutely no problems getting it to work. This was upgrading
a 2.0 from CS to slink back in August, I think. If you already have
apt working to your system, you're a step ahead, even.
Actually, one thing I'm not sure of is X. Supposedly, the troubles
with upgrading X (due to packages being split) is resolved, but
be sure to check that you have needed X packages (xfonts,
xcontrib, &c.) once you upgrade.
