Yes, though you might find visual representation of what you're doing helpful. You might want to do this instead: apt-get install aptitude Then, once that is installed, run aptitude. Hit u to update the package list, g to Get-er-done (install/remove/upgrade packages based on what you've changed). > Those times I've used it have usually had bad > results.

Use aptitude instead and you can work out any last-second package conflict/depends aliens before you commit to downloading and installing/removing. -- Paul Johnson Email and Instant Messenger (Jabber): [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://ursine.ca/~baloo/
