Now you tell me about the autoup.sh v0.28 upgrade :-) Yesterday I did some more hunting and found the 2 packages that autoup.sh v0.27 expected to be in libs - I found them in base. I downloaded them and autoup'ed again. It installed everything but it still complained about some conflicts.
After that I did dselect to complete the process. There were some more complaints along the way (fvwm & compface) but dselect went thru all the way to the end. The system even came up after the reboot!! So far most apps seem to work. What failed to work is fvwm and netscape and StarOffice - 3 apps that I probably use the most. Not a good thing!! If I bring up fvwm via startx/.xinitrc it fails with a Seg fault. If it comes up thru xdm/.xsession it works ok. Wierd as my ~/.xsession is just a sym link to ~/.xinitrc I remember reading somewhere that there is a netsape that works with libc6. Guess it is time to do some web searching for it. What can I do about StarOffice? I had StarOffice 4 working before the upgrade. I also see the rvplayer which I guess will solve my previous problems. This bo->hamm upgrade is a less hairy process than the documentation implies. ok enough rambling. jmb > >v0.28: 1998-07-23 (Craig Sanders) > - libstdc++2.8 has moved from libs/ to base/ > - libnet-perl has moved from interpreters/ to base/ > >as usual, it is available from > > http://debian.vicnet.net.au/autoup/ (primary site) > ftp://debian.vicnet.net.au/autoup/ >and > http://taz.net.au/autoup/ > > > >autoup.tar.gz on the primary site has also been updated with all the >latest versions of stuff from hamm. it weighs in at 9.1MB and includes: > >-r--r--r-- root/root 450820 1998-07-17 07:55 bash_2.01.1-3.1.deb >-r--r--r-- root/root 13912 1997-05-08 00:00 data-dumper_2.07-1.deb >-r--r--r-- root/root 166586 1998-06-23 20:41 dpkg-dev_1.4.0.23.2.deb >-r--r--r-- root/root 13544 1998-04-28 09:46 dpkg-ftp_1.4.9.6.deb >-r--r--r-- root/root 21946 1998-05-12 11:04 dpkg-mountable_0.7.deb >-r--r--r-- root/root 341616 1998-06-23 20:41 dpkg_1.4.0.23.2.deb >-r--r--r-- root/root 181344 1998-05-22 08:56 ldso_1.9.9-1.deb >-r--r--r-- root/root 284268 1998-06-12 12:21 libc5_5.4.38-1.1.deb >-r--r--r-- root/root 580872 1998-07-17 08:26 libc6_2.0.7t-1.deb >-r--r--r-- root/root 254826 1997-10-07 13:55 libg++272_2.7.2.8-0.1.deb >-r--r--r-- root/root 235522 1998-06-08 10:42 libg++27_2.7.2.1-14.4.deb >-r--r--r-- root/root 17296 1998-05-25 12:29 libgdbm1_1.7.3-25.deb >-r--r--r-- root/root 17230 1998-05-25 12:29 libgdbmg1_1.7.3-25.deb >-r--r--r-- root/root 65308 1997-04-28 00:00 libnet-perl_1.0502-1.deb >-r--r--r-- root/root 69678 1998-07-17 07:55 libreadline2_2.1-10.1.deb >-r--r--r-- root/root 75864 1998-07-17 07:55 libreadlineg2_2.1-10.1.deb >-r--r--r-- root/root 94784 1998-07-02 08:10 libstdc++2.8_2.90.29-0.6.deb >-r--r--r-- root/root 1340204 1998-07-17 08:26 locales_2.0.7t-1.deb >-r--r--r-- root/root 111006 1998-04-16 11:09 ncurses3.0_1.9.9e-2.1.deb >-r--r--r-- root/root 124368 1998-07-17 09:51 ncurses3.4_1.9.9g-8.8.deb >-r--r--r-- root/root 350948 1998-07-17 07:56 netbase_3.11-1.deb >-r--r--r-- root/root 611710 1998-07-05 22:07 netstd_3.07-2.deb >-r--r--r-- root/root 282680 1998-06-08 10:47 perl-base_5.004.04-6.deb >-r--r--r-- root/root 3125884 1998-06-08 10:47 perl_5.004.04-6.deb >-r--r--r-- root/root 84354 1998-07-02 12:19 slang0.99.34_0.99.38-6.deb >-r--r--r-- root/root 83902 1998-07-02 12:19 slang0.99.38_0.99.38-6.deb >-r--r--r-- root/root 261268 1998-07-17 08:26 timezones_2.0.7t-1.deb > >craig > >-- >craig sanders > > >-- >Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] < /dev/null > > > -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] < /dev/null
