Do you contemplate making one upgrade document that includes both
autoup and apt? If so, please mail me your notes (directly please, I
will probably unsubscribe from the lists for a week), and I will
prepare a draft of such a document as soon as I get back early next
week.
If this needs to be an sgml document, please give me detailed
instructions, as I have never used sgml (I normally use emacs for
everything; I know emacs has an sgml mode, but I don't know how to use
it. Does a document have to be started under sgml, or can I write in
emacs and then call the sgml mode to convert it?)
On a related note, autoup.sh can upgrade a buzz (1.1.x) system,
but it must have dpkg version 1.4 or higher available. So a .deb from
bo is required on the CD - probably in the same directory where
autoup.sh resides. It certainly shouldn't be in the regular archive!
Bob
