Just upgraded Lenny to Squeeze with aptitude update ; aptitude dist-upgrade Repeated runs through eventually got it there though it did look scary to see quite as many broken packages at intermediate steps. Vim-common and vim-tiny wouldn't update - there's a conflict with a file in llvm-dev One of the splash screen programs had a similar conflict and also stopped the process dead at one point. A manual deinstall of llvm-dev solved that one as did deinstalling ksplash from KDE 3. Hope this helps someone, AndyC -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
