Thanks you. But I find some newer versions in potato and I would like to
test them too. I upgraded the netbase with netbase compatible with libc20,
so now the basic system is fine. But I want to test some new things. I
don't want full upgrade to potato, because it is not quite stable
sometimes. What I want is to stay with slink and benefit some goods from
potato.;)
