My running system is sarge, and so I had no trouble installing cdebootstrap. I assume that I can simply redo the cross-install with it and it will overwrite packages having versions it doesn't like. Am I likely to run into the problem of having to downgrade packages? Your description of cdebootstrap makes it sound as though this is not likely to happen. Thanks.
