1. How can I continue with the upgrade, ignoring these dependencies? Large numbers of updates remain unconfigured, and I cannot get the system to ignore the problems and pass onto the rest. 2. There is a dangerously unstable package - imhangul - half-installed. I am unable to install (as suggested by dpkg) nor can I remove. Which command can be tried? I have tried dpkg variants of -i, --ignore-depends, --reconfigure, --configure --pending, and apt-get remove 3. Should I forget the Srage version, and simply reconfigure the apt,sources for unstable, and dist-upgrade using aptitude from that?

Hi Brian,
I had this a couple of times (I'm using Sarge for about half
a year) while updating/upgrading reguarly. In my experience there is
usually 1 package which causes this. By doing a apt-get -f install \
package, (-f == force) you can usually force your way through this,
although the last time I did this, I had to force a sid package in.
-f, --fix-broken
This should fix it, but in my experience doesn't always apt-get -f install
Your could also try apt-get -f install imhangul-
Note the minus sign at the end of the package name.
