I just went through an upgrade again.. (Someone accidentally set KDE source to
latest on a box, and the next guy went upgrade )
3.1.4 -> latest
If you are going to try.. start off by replacing the 3.1.4 source line to..
deb http://download.kde.org/stable/latest/Debian stable main
deb http://people.debian.org/~nobse/xfree86 woody main
deb http://ftp.freenet.de/pub/debian-openoffice/ woody-test main contrib
And do a remove of openoffice.org1.1-mimelnk, as that deb is left installed..
Do it first will save you some troubles..
Remember, this upgrades Xfree, so be ready for a lot of questions..
In our case we lost..
kdepim-libs kivio koffice-libs libqt3-mt libqt3-mt-dev openoffice.org1.1
openoffice.org1.1-bin openoffice.org1.1-debian-files
openoffice.org1.1-help-en openoffice.org1.1-l10n-en qt3-dev-tools xpdf
xpdf-reader
And after install we had the following held back..
libnspr4 libnss3 libpaperg mozilla mozilla-browser mozilla-mailnews
mozilla-psm xlibmesa-dev aspell debhelper
'aspell' had to remove..
'debhelper' worked by doing apt-get install
'libpaperg' worked by doing apt-get install
'xlibmesa-dev' worked by doing an apt-get install
The mozilla stuff won't install, as it has dependency issues.. However, I
think we can move to firefox or similar..
So an 'apt-get remove libnspr4 libnss3 mozilla mozilla-browser
mozilla-mailnews mozilla-psm' cleaned the system up to a stable state again.
Then install 'mozilla-firefox' if you want..
But the upgrade was a lttle easier this time than last..
