With Debian, it depends on the packages you have installed. Often times there will be old packages that would prevent a smmooth dist-upgrade, but they can be resolved quite easily (remove the old offending package first). Normally apt or dpkg would tell you how to resolve such problem if it exists. At the end of an upgrade, yes, Debian/Ubuntu is very usable, unlike some other distros. -- -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.12 GCS d+ s: a- C++ UL++++ P- L+++ E--- W++ N* o-- K-- w--- O-- M V- PS PE Y PGP++ t 5 X++ R tv b++ DI+ D++ G e++ h! r y? ------END GEEK CODE BLOCK------
