NGPT and "Classic" Threating

Dear Debian Users,

i think i am forced to install NGPT (Next Generation Posix Threating)

on one of our servers, because i am missing performance and

i hope that will solve the problem. Now i have a couple of questions:

1) I cannot find a package NGPT. i am using debian woody

at the moment. i found the project NGPT mentioned at the

debian page reporting that it is in preparation for nearly a

year...

2) If i install from source, NGPT will probably overwrite the

actually installed threating library. if something goes wrong,

what is the name of the package i need to reinstall to have

my old Threating Library back ?

3) I dont think its possible to deinstall the old threating package

first because of dependencies. how can i (with apt or dselct, or

whatever) force a reinstall of a specific package ?

If you can answer one or all of there question it would really help

me.

Thank you in advance,

Philipp
