The only half automated way, is to change stable to unstable in your source.list, apt-get update; apt-get install icewm, change unstable to stable in sources.list, apt-get update. Note, that this may still mean you have to update most of the system to unstable. unstable uses glibc 2.1, stable uses glibc2.0 (aka libc6) If icewm is compiled for glibc2.1, this library has to be installed as well. As it replaces glibc2.0, any other package needing glibc2.0 will have to be upgraded to a version compiled for glibc2.1. Ciao, Martin
