Howdy Folks,
I tried to do a dist-upgrade about 3 or 4 days ago, and I got the
following
messages, which are still happening today.
The following NEW packages will be installed:
alsa-base libasound1
The following packages have been kept back
kdeadmin kdebase kdegames kdegraphics kdenetwork kdeutils kdm
sced
1 packages upgraded, 2 newly installed, 0 to remove and 8 not
upgraded.
Need to get 43.8kB/83.4kB of archives. After unpacking 152kB will be
used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]

These files seem to be nowhere to be found in the debian file base, anyone else running into this
also? Apparently the database has the above versions of the files, but the files themselves have
been misplaced, etc.
and if I do a apt-get install libasound1 I get the above message about alsa-base, so I guess libasound1
is part of alsa-base or something, not really sure what is going on.
Any clues?
