I get a code (1) on every dist-upgrade for some time now..maybe two weeks, can't remember but if I run: apt-get -f install apt-get goes on to setup the packages it downloaded. If the dist-upgrade message says it it going to remove a lot of packages I run instead: apt-get -u upgrade I continue this command until a dist-upgrade returns to sanity. -- CK -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
