A tool in $PATH would still be handy though -- Sometimes I update the native amd64 side of things and aptitude wants to remove ia32-* +openoffice etc, normally because libc6 has been updated but ia32-libc6 hasn't caught up yet. So I have to update the amd64-archive by hand. > I hope I will find the time to work on it somemore, to finish the cron > job and add some auto configuring and debconf questions to it > (e.g. suggest only doing sarge on a sarge system). That would be cool. Thanks, Ian. -- Ian Campbell The only perfect science is hind-sight.
