I just upgraded from Slink to Potato over the past few days, and had a
similar problem. What I wound up doing was running apt-get dist-upgrade
a couple of times to let all the dependancies settle themselves out. I'm
not sure if that was the correct way to do it, but it seems to have worked.
The only (semi) major problems were the ncurses link problem that has been
discussed before on this list and the debconf problem that has also been
mentioned.
