If you get mad dist-upgrade problems - use dselect or an apt frontend. Seriously. Usually it's one or two single conflicts, and spending two minutes sorting it out by hand will save you a great deal of effort later. Of course, dist-upgrades should be possible by the time woody goes stable, so make sure a bug report's been filed. (Recently, 'apt-get install perl' has occasionally helped matters, but I'm not sure what the exact problem is here. Joey's advice is probably better-informed.) -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
