I'm new to Debian. I've been waiting for one month to receive the
1.2.4 CD from Cheap Bytes (sent March 3rd arrived April 4th) and I'm
trying with it these days... I would not start waiting for another month
NOW to get a more recent release (and the WEB says they're still selling
1.2.4 CDs).
I tried installing anything just already marked at first entry in
dselect (just had to de-select perl-base), but I read "overriding"
messages during install and afterwards I had complains about configuration
of some packages, which I type here by hand:
...../base/libc5_5.4.20-1.deb
...../dev/perl_5.003.07-6.deb
...../editors/ed_0.2-11.deb
...../misc/gpm_1.10-2.deb
libc5-dev
libdb1-dev
libg++2.7-dev
libgdbm1-dev
texbin
latex
psnfss
I didn't see any message at install-time saying that the release may
have such problems, so I was thinking that if anybody had tried it before
releasing it I should have anything working clean.

behaviours (that is "consider it unusable"/"do this and this to
fix"/"ignore safely this message")?

Thanks in advance. I'll be more concise afterwards when I'll put some
more (minor) questions/wishes later, just hope not to get flames for
"silly" questions. I'm learning on some books and I'm reading docs, but it
takes time, I haven't arrived at goal yet but still would like to have
Debian well setup and running on my system.
