I just did a dist-upgrade in testing and ended up unable to proceed or back up with the install, and key system services (e.g., DNS) not running.
If this should happen to affect you, I finally worked around it by doing(*) apt-get -remove libffi libgwrap-runtime0-dev g-wrap gnucash The upgrade proceeded after the packages were removed, and apt-get install gnucash then installed gnucash and dependents without complaint. The new gnucash depends on libffi4, but libffi claimed some of the same files, so dpkg would not unpack libffi4. The bug-tracking system says there is no libffi; it's probably a leftover from much earlier days. libffi4 is part of the gcc-4.2 source package. If you want more details, see bug 387561. Ross Boylan (*) If you have different packages, the basic process began with apt-get remove libffi and then kept adding the packages that the resulting command complained about. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
