-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 When I saw that it was going to be a doozie with "apt-get upgrade" and some packages were going to be held back, I decided to use dselect for dependency resolution. Good thing, there is a dependency error with some new library so that all (or a whole bunch) of the X applications were to be uninstalled. The conflict would not resolve, so I quit without upgrading. What a mess! I hope they sort it out soon.
Good thing you had a full backup. The only thing I backup is user data (and /etc/*) so I would have had to do a fresh rebuild. Hmm, maybe that's not such a bad idea anyway. Flush out those obsolete libraries and applications on the list this morning like "kdm". :( >I upgraded to 7.0.10 this morning. Unfortunately, after doing so, I >could not get X to start.
