Re: stable to testing: aptitude wants strange things
apt-get turns out to be mostly the same. I started using aptitude
since I thought it was supposed to replace apt-get when sarge went
stable. Now both apt-get and aptitude want to remove aptitude. It's
a hint I think. Thanks everyone for the advice.
