Subject: upgrade-reports: Had to manually remove umpteen packages to make upgrade proceed
Package: upgrade-reports
Severity: normal

*** Please type your report below this line ***

I upgraded a host that had been installed with testing on 
  Sat Oct 23 04:48:17 EEST 2004
(using  Sarge installer, daily netinst.iso 2004-10-21)

I guess problems during upgrade to etch were caused by numerous 
installed and removed packagas on this host, both Debian and third party 
programs. It was pretty hard to get the upgrade to complete, since it 
kept stopping. The error messages are in Finnish, sorry:

  ^MLuen tehtäväkuvauksia... 0%       ^M^MLuen tehtäväkuvauksia... 
2%^M^MLuen tehtäväkuvauksia... Valmis^M
E: Virhe, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve tuotti katkoja, syynä voi olla 
pysytetyt paketit.
E: En pysty korjaamaan riippuvuuksia; joitain paketteja ei voi asentaa
E: Unable to resolve some dependencies!
Joidenkin pakettien riippuvuuksia ei voinut tyydyttää.  Tämä voi johtua
antamistasi mahdottomista vaatimuksista tai, jos käytät epävakaata 
jakelua,
siitä, ettei joitakin vaadittuja paketteja ole vielä saatavilla.

Näillä paketeilla on tyydyttämättömiä riippuvuuksia:
  mozplugger: Riippuvuudet: libx11-6 mutta se ei ole asennettavissa tai
                            xlibs (> 4.1.0) mutta se ei ole 
asennettavissa

I had to by trial and error do 
  aptitude remove ..this and that..

to get upgrade to proceed. I kept adding packages to the aptitude remove 
command until it magaded to actually do the remove. Seemed the best bet 
was to include all the packages mentioned in the error messages to the 
remove -command. 

I did finish the upgrade eventually and the host booted OK etc, so the 
upgrade worked. But it was a bit tiresome, could be easier.
