apt-get, now what?
I just tried to upgrade via apt-get, and while it did download the
files, it didn't install them. A first `apt-get install' attempt gave
me the following:
---------------------------------------------
Checking system integrity...ok
Sorry, qt1g is already the newest version
Sorry, giftrans is already the newest version
Sorry, gimp-data-extras is already the newest version
The following extra packages will be installed:
zlib1g-dev libjpeg62-dev libpng2-dev
The following packages will be REMOVED:
libungif-bin wcsmbs-locale-ja libstdc++2.9-dev kterm libwcsmbs giflib3g
timezones gimp checker
The following NEW packages will be installed:
freefont libgtk1.2 libglib1.2 gimp1.1 sharefont libstdc++2.9-glibc2.1

libstdc++2.10-dev
gconv-modules
25 packages upgraded, 12 newly installed, 8 to remove and 497 not
upgraded.
Sorry, but the following packages are broken - this means they
have unmet dependencies:
giflib-bin: Depends:giflib3g Depends:giflib3g
---------------------------------------------
After removing my request for the packages giflib-bin, giflib3g, ..., I
got the following:
---------------------------------------------

Need to get 25.5M of archives. After unpacking 224k will be freed.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]

Fine, but during the download process I had a few problems:
---------------------------------------------

Which finally ended up with:

So, nothing was installed, though the packages are in:
/var/cache/apt/archives/
and then some (partially?) downloaded packages in:
/var/cache/apt/archives/partial/
What's next? if I now run `apt-get install -d' for finishing
downloading the (supposedly) partially downloaded packages, how do I get
to install everything once I've got them all?
TIA
