version 0.10 of autoupgrade script
changes in this version:
- two bug reports (from Steve Hsieh <steveh@eecs.umich.edu> and Barak
Pearlmutter <bap@cs.unm.edu>) that splay and xslib need to be removed
- wrote a dependancy checker using sgrep and found that boot-floppies
needs to be removed too.
- now checks if user is already in the ../binary-ARCHITECTURE directory
nearly ready for 1.0 release, i think.

# Revision History:
# v0.00: 1998-01-08 (morning)
# - a rough transcript of scott's doc and my own experiences
# v0.01: 1998-01-08 (night)
# - a few bugfixes
# - i got unlazy and put in the right subdirectories for each package.
# should run a lot faster.
# - now checks for failure at critical points and exits with a different
# exit code for each failure.
# - now uses 'binary-$(dpkg --print-installation-architecture)' instead
# of 'binary-i386'.
# v0.02: 1998-01-09
# - fixed the perl-base/perl install (thanks Lindsay!)
# - improved the DEVPACKAGES=$(dpkg --get-selections...) and added -dbg
# packages.
# v0.03: 1998-01-09 (p.m.)
# - fixed some directories
# - changed "-iB" to "-iBE" so that if the script fails and is run again
# it will not disturb things already in place.
# - added a final "dpkg --configure --pending".
# - sanity check that we are in the right place added
# v0.04: 1998-01-10 (Igor Grobman)
# - made it possible to place all packages in current dir.
# - added -pic packages to removal list.
# - make sure dpkg-dev does not get selected for removal.
# - moved dpkg-ftp and dpkg-mounted to the end.
# v0.05: 1998-01-10 (Igor Grobman)
# - added a note about upgrading libraries
# v0.06: 1998-01-11 (Craig Sanders)
# - restructured code to avoid code duplication.
# - cleaned up a few things
# - prints advisory notes telling user what's happening.
# - added some more instructions on what to do about development packages.
# - added code to guess some obvious locations for the mirror, otherwise
# ask user.
# v0.07: 1998-01-11 (Craig Sanders)
# - uh oh. i hard-coded in binary-i386. quick...better release another
# version before James notices.
# v0.08: 1998-01-11 (Craig Sanders)
# - added libpthread0 to the remove list.
# - fixed PKGS_LIBGPP (i mistyped it as PKGS_GPP)
# - some old version of perl's postrm didn't delete a .packlist file
# from /usr/lib/perl5/i486-linux/5.003/auto/Mail/.packlist. check for
# it and delete if found before installing perl.
# v0.09: 1998-01-13 (Craig Sanders)
# - added datadumper and libnet-perl to be installed/upgraded before
# dpkg-ftp. Thanks, Igor.
# - changed ` ... ` backticks to $( ... ) for DPKG & LDCONFIG
# variables at top of script.
# v0.10: 1998-01-14 (Craig Sanders)
# - two reports that xslib depends on xlib6-dev and splay depends on
# libpthread0. added them to the remove list.
# - wrote a dependancy checker using my debian sgrep macros and found
# that the boot-floppies package depends on libc5-pic. added it to
# remove list.
# - added "../$ARCH" to $TRY.
#
# TODO: (probably by somebody else. this script is mostly good enough imo)
# - this script _still_ needs more error checking :-)

This script will install the packages necessary to ensure a safe upgrade
to hamm.
You need to either have a local or remote mirror mounted, or have the
latest versions of the following packages from hamm available in the
current directory:
ldso, libc5, libc6, timezones, locales, ncurses3.0, ncurses3.4,
libreadline2, libreadlineg2, bash, libg++272, dpkg, dpkg-dev,
dpkg-ftp, dpkg-mountable, libgdbm1, libgdbmg1, perl-base, and perl.
If you are using a mirror, press 'm'.

libc6 is now installed. Now run dselect to upgrade the rest of your
system. When that's done, reboot with "shutdown -r now" for the
utmp/wtmp wrapper functions in the upgraded libc5 to take effect.
BTW, if you aren't using it already, check out dselect's "mountable"
access method. It's much faster than the standard "mounted" method, and
it logs everything that happens in /var/log/dpkg-mountable. You'll want
to set "Allow overwriting repeated files?" to yes, and for extra speed
set "Enable MD5 checksumming?" to no.
If you are installing manually using dpkg, remember that all libc6 (g)
libraries conflict with all the versions of their libc5 (non-g)
counterparts prior to a certain version which placed libc5 libs in
/usr/lib/libc5-compat. This means that they conflict with your bo
versions of libc5-linked libraries, but not the hamm versions. For
example, if you are installing xlib6g, you should install xlib6 from
hamm first before installing xlib6g unless you have nothing that depend
on xlib6 in which case you can safelyremove it.
All development packages (-dev, -dbg, and -pic) have been removed
during this upgrade procedure due to conflicts between libc5 and libc6
versions. You will have to re-install any development packages you
need.
Finally, remember to fix up wtmp and utmp, otherwise last and
who and sac etc wont work. here's what Miquel van Smoorenburg
<miquels@cistron.nl> had to say about this recently in debian-user
mailing list:
> 1. You need to update ALL your packages to hamm
> 2. Reboot if you haven't done that already
> 3. You need to move the wtmp file and truncate the utmp file:
> cd /var/log
> mv wtmp wtmp.libc5
> touch wtmp
> cd /var/run
> cp /dev/null utmp
> 4. You might want to reboot again to make sure
>
> This is because the "struct utmp" and thus the utmp and wtmp
> "databases" are different between libc5 and libc6
