If you have a Line in your sources.list for the Potato dist you do
'not' want to do apt-get upgrade!  apt-get install package is OK
but apt-get upgrade will hose your Slink dist.

I comment out the Potato links, just to be sure that I don't forget,
after I Install any new packages from Potato.

You might try adding this link to your sources.list

deb http://ftp.netgod.net/ x/

There are Potato deb's there that have been compiled for Slink.
