I run Debian 1.3.1 and wish to upgrade to release 2.0 Having read up on this a little, am I correct in saying that I will be able to do this without breaking everything?
I am concearned about the LIB6c stuff, and what upgrading will mean to my old (LIB5) non-debian packages. Will they still work, or will I end up breaking everything from trying to change to 2.0 ? I understand I need to run the autoup.sh script first, then use dselect as normal afterwards. This is fine for upgrading my Debian Packages. But what about other stuff *I* may have installed in /usr/local etc ! Can I make the autoup.sh script take the LIB6c info from the Debian 2.0 CD(s) I have. (Or Will I need to run autoup to Debians site using FTP etc) I am most concearned about this upgrade, I don't want to be left with a box of broken bits, followed by a long night of tape restores. Whatsmore, I do not want to be stuck with 1.3.1 just because I have a few non-debian packages installed ! Thanks in advance. -- Nidge Jones
