I had a similar problem with a Debian testing/unstable mix. Some of the system libraries, most notably the glibc seem to have changed. Have a look at the requirements of some "low-level" packages marked for removal by dist-upgrade like the kdelibs and check the versions of those libs. Update as required (should work since most programs just depend on versions ">=") and the removal list should get cut noticeably. Repeat this as necessary. IIRC, all I had to do here was to install an updated version of the glibc. -- Got Backup? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
