During larger transitions if you're not using i386 it's often hard to keep relatively up to date at all - using PowerPC I tend to find that GNOME transitions and similar cause dist-upgrade and aptitude to fail for extended periods of time, requiring manual intervention to keep large parts of the archive at all up to date. -- "You grabbed my hand and we fell into it, like a daydream - or a fever." -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
