Re: Upgrading from Debian 2.1 to unstable

Which is the easiest way to upgrade to unstable under this
circumstances?  Recompiling apt for glibc 2.0.7? Editing the Package
file?


Check out your favorite debian-mirror: there should be a statically linked apt.deb (in debian/tools I think), which will eliminate your problem. And please don't just upgrade, you have to apt-get dist-upgrade.
