Hi, I used to keep my system up to date with 'apt-get update ; apt-get dist-upgrade'. So far, so good : i've upgraded from Hamm to Slink.
Since Potato is online, these commands doesn't notice any update... For example, my telnet package version is 0.12-2 but there is a new version 0.12-3 in the instable distro : if i run 'apt-get update ; apt-get dist-upgrade', 0 packages updated. If i run 'apt-get install telnet', apt-get complains my version is newer than the one on the ftp site... My /etc/apt/sources.list contains the following entries : deb ftp://ftp.oleane.net/pub/mirrors/linux/distributions/debian unstable main contrib non-free deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US unstable non-US And i've checked that the unstable directory on this site is a link to Potato. I've tried to use the ftp.debian.org site : same thing... Any idea ? (It's not critical, but i'm wondering why apt-get has such a behaviour) Thanks in advance, -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Éric Jacoboni « J'ai épuisé le tout-venant, je vais me risquer dans le bizarre » (M.
