No! Just the old messages about replacing your configs with the new maintainer's version. There definitely has to be some streamlining here! I would totally love a system where it took all your customizations and added it to the new config file.

Yes! And worse, all kinds of things are broken now. :(

I probably will. I just upgraded last night!

Yes! All sorts of things on my system are broken now. Fonts, sound, graphics, X, the console, major apps, keyboard and mouse behavior, missing packages ... did I miss anything? I don't know, but this is the worst part of an upgrade. I just hope I can get my system back soon! Is this the right place to ask for help??
