Rick, Er...one small departure. After upgrading from potato to woody, I found I avoided some problems by doing:
apt-get --simulate dist-upgrade Then identifying the packages I really wanted and doing: apt-get upgrade then apt-get install <for the new packages I really wanted>. As opposed to doing: apt-get dist-upgrade. But then my mileage always varies. montefin Rick Macdonald wrote: > > On Tue, 22 Aug 2000, Daniel E. Baumann wrote: > > > O.K.
