you're probably right. (and you probably know that. :) )

which is why it should not surprise any gurus on this list that
newbies upgrading from slink know nothing about APT or its magic.
they don't rtfm because they don't know about it.

NEWBIES: check out 'apt-get'! it's better than dpkg, which is
better than redhat's rpm 'system'...
