- Were there any non-Debian packages installed before the upgrade? If
so, what were they?
No.
- Was the system pre-update a 'pure' system only containing packages
from the previous release? If not, which packages were not from that
release?
Yes.
- Did any packages fail to upgrade?
No.
- Were there any problems with the system after upgrading?
Yes, pulseaudio service fail.
Further Comments/Problems:
Please attach the output of "COLUMNS=200 dpkg -l" (or "env COLUMNS ...",
depending on your shell) from before and after the upgrade so that we
know what packages were installed on your system.
No think I will, its a wall of text and irrelevant.. My machines are pure
Debian, everything is from your repository.
