The only workaround I saw there was to change+relax the dependencies of packages which trigger the bug in apt, I dont think this is a good fix/workaround. (Because we might miss some packages.) But then, a mandatory apt upgrade before upgrading to lenny is also optimal, even though this has been done before. regards, Holger
