You make me startle! I had the impression that one could slowly upgrade, starting with your script. Because I would like to run wine and dosemu, and I want to use my IDE CD-rewriteble, all of which are not or not well supported in the bo version, I decided to upgrade to libc6, expecting that I could later on, when I have time, pick up and install other debian packages that I seem to need. I ran your script and afterwards my computer seems to run as fine as it did before. What is the kind of trouble that I can expect if I only run your upgrade script without further upgrading?
