Hello,
I tried to create the attached patch for Bug #498905 which removes
initrd-tools from the release notes and provides the information of gdm||
kdm||xdm restart, that was related to initrd-tools before, now after
apt/aptitude installation.
I did an update etch -> lenny by doing
# apt-get install apt aptitude
first.
Several packages were updated and gdm||kdm||xdm restart was done as well.
Regards
Toby

be used, but if in doubt, it is recommended that you examine the package
