Dear list.
I've upgraded one of my VPS to Jessie recently. The upgrade itself
went smoothly, more-or-less (disregarding inability to boot
xz-compressed kernel due to ancient pvgrub).
Yet there's that rss2mail package I used for years that's troubling me
now.
First, the packaging quality.
I recently upgraded to squeeze and found that the slapd configuration had been
completely revamped. I was authenticating against a locally replicated copy of
my directory behind a firewall. I was using anonymous binding for my own
purposes and I want to continue using it that way. I don't really

Hi guys,
I am currently on Debian 5.04 and need to upgrade gettext from the current
version
to a newer one (im trying to upgrade DR17, and I get gettext errors).
When I install gettext I get a LOT of dependency errors. Is there a way I can
get gettext and the needed dependencies in one go?

Ben,
You haven't given a lot of information but based on what you have I suspect
your problem is initrd. 2.4.20 Debian images definitely use initrd, which
means you need an initrd=/initrd.img line in lilo for that kernel, and a
symlink initrd.img to /boot/initrd.img-2.4 ??? I know the 2.4.18

I did a live upgrade (production server, company doesn't have funds for a
development or transition server) on a box from Debian 2.1 to Debian 2.2,

the stuff fixed (finally), but I get these errors in dselect:

Hi all.
I was running woody originally before it became testing and decided to do a
fresh install. Upon realizing that testing didn't include many packages I
enjoyed having I tried a dist-upgrade to sid.
