Well, I disagree: again, not because the upgrade is "broken" or not, but because there is something which is not the "usual stuff". Again, leaving both bugs open means that there is a documentation somewhere on *.debian.org, which could help people upgrading. OTOH, feel free to do as you think it is appropriate: I am know upgrading *real* systems and I know what I should expect ;-) Thx, bye, Gismo / Luca
