Hi Andreas,
I have gone through the update (without giving much thought I have to admit) and there was no trouble here. I guess I didn't give a secondthought because of the good record updating Debian has with me. I always used to run unstable; sometimes I had (minor) problems, but before Sargeturned stable, I switched from testing to stable, together with a few backported packages. Ever since I do an apt-get update/upgrade from time to time and had no hiccup ever.
Yes, I agree :) Based on the fine advice of the many good gentleman and gentlewomen on this mail-list, I've done the upgrade, and it went without a hitch. I'll never figure out how they upgrade the C library without bring the system down. Kudos to the great men and women who make Debian the great O/S that it is. PS. About a year ago I upgraded my father's Windows XP SP1 to SP2. I still shake when I remember the horror of that experience.
