Hi ! Well apt-get upgrade did never finish OK. It started out more or less ok, but after a while it could not properly configure some packages (gimp-manual and libpaperg (here it never accepted any paper format like a4 and there was no list to choose from; therefore forcing a ctrl+c and thereby aborting everything)). After this incomplete upgrade nothing was changed with apt-ger dist-upgrade.
What now?
