Sarge -> Etch mailserver upgrade...
Hi there,
I am running a bunch of Sarge servers and slowly upgrading them to etch.
Most have been fine, but I am having a few problems with the mailserver. It
is running :
courier-authdaemon
courier-base
courier-doc
courier-imap
courier-imap-ssl
courier-ldap
courier-pop
courier-pop-ssl
courier-ssl
fetcmail
procmail
exim4-base
exim4-config
exim4-daemon-heavy
sa-exim
(amongst other things).
When doing a dist-upgrade I get:
cholet:~# aptitude dist-upgrade

Some packages had unmet dependencies. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libfam0c102: Conflicts: libfam0 but 2.7.0-12 is to be installed.
If I (temporarily) try to remove libfam I get:
cholet:~# aptitude remove libfam0c102

0 packages upgraded, 3 newly installed, 9 to remove and 69 not upgraded.
Need to get 0B/2826kB of archives. After unpacking 1200kB will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n/?] n
I don't want to remove the couier apps unless I am absolutely certain that
everything will re-install OK..
Has anyone done anything like this...? Or is this a slight bug-ette that
will be resolved soon (dependancies)..?
Cheers,
Pete.
