Sounds good. Next link in the chain, will I have to use
'dist-upgrade'?
Yes, though you might find visual representation of what you're doing
helpful. You might want to do this instead:
apt-get install aptitude
Then, once that is installed, run aptitude. Hit u to update the
package list, g to Get-er-done (install/remove/upgrade packages based
on what you've changed).
Those times I've used it have usually had bad
results.
But that's what bugreport is for. The developers can't fix what they
don't know about. For faster service, include your bugfix in a
patch.
