I was going to read up on: apt-get dist-upgrade -V -s
But then today, I was able to do a full upgrade, using: sudo aptitude -Pvv update sudo aptitude -Pvv safe-upgrade sudo aptitude -Pvv full-upgrade Finally! Now, I'm sure using: apt-get dist-upgrade -V -s would have worked as well, although I thought I read somewhere that mixing apt-get and aptitude is not a good idea. Thanks again, Ben. And, btw . . . dpkg? apt-get? aptitude? apt? Would Debian please just settle on one, and stick with it?

When I am in doubt, I simulate a dist-upgrade with: apt-get dist-upgrade -V -s Kind regards, -- Ben Caradoc-Davies <b...@transient.nz> Director Transient Software Limited <https://transient.nz/> New Zealand
