sid dist-upgrade will remove Xorg and hold back replacement
Greetings wise admins,
apt-get upgrade went fine, however dist-upgrade looks ready
to remove a lot of Xorg packages while holding back
upgrades.
What is the appropriate solution here, just to wait?
Obviously I don't want to lose X and other important
libraries.
Details follow. Thanks for any help.
Joel
