Re: squeeze-lts dist-upgrade to wheezy failed @ apt
Hi again,
I just wanted to follow up with more info.
I think these packages that want to stay with squeeze are pinned, for example:
root@gilgamesh:~/tmp# apt-cache policy perl-base
perl-base:
Installed: 5.10.1-17squeeze6
Candidate: 5.14.2-21+deb7u2
Version table:
5.14.2-21+deb7u2 0
500 http://mirror.cc.columbia.edu/debian/ wheezy/main i386 Packages
*** 5.10.1-17squeeze6 0
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
But I have no /etc/apt/preferences file on this machine &
/etc/apt/preferences.d is empty
Is it the case that during a dist-upgrade, the system might internally
be pinning some packages for certain stages of the upgrade? Or should
I try to unpin it somehow?
Thanks again,
Kenneth
