If you use aptitude, it's easy to get a listing of packages to be upgraded and pick which ones you want to put on hold or actually upgrade. You could also use 'apt-get install' to install individual packages and their dependencies, but this isn't necessarily what you want. -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
