I tried the one from today on the rx2660 I have at home ATM. The rx6600

Unfortunately the new image shows a problem during the initial
`debootstrap` run for "vim-tiny" and "vim-common". Looks like their
versions were different during creation of the image:
Should be fixed in today's image [1].

Just tested this one and this time the installation fails after "tasksel":

Maybe I should try at a later date.
ATM [2] shows all Perl packages with version numbers 5.32.0 but [3] is
still requiring 5.30.0.
[2]: http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian-ports/pool-ia64/main/p/perl/
[3]:
http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian-ports/pool-ia64/main/libl/liblocale-gettext-perl/liblocale-gettext-perl_1.07-4_ia64.buildinfo
BTW, maybe it's just a feeling, but from my memory these version number
"mismatches" seem to happen very often for ia64, but are not so common
for other ports architectures. Is there something different in the
package build process on ia64 compared to other architectures that leads
to (more) broken dependencies?
Cheers,
Frank
