I first downloaded all the file the testing distro requested (included the recommended ones) then I tried dpkg -i xxx.deb . I didn't try the apt-get method because I would have create a list and so on first. I know the apt-get sounds a better way, but I would like to avoid to increase the work right now. I also found some package in a debian-people site: http://people.debian.org/~cpbotha/ as David Barclay Harris suggested to me. I will try it on a scratch system as long as I will find to time to do it!!! Thankx Ste

I downloaded all the packets (.deb) from the debian's site and when I try to install xlibs it requests automatically the debconf package. I provide it to the previous package and it consequently ask me to upgrade perl from previously installed 5.004 version to 5.6. The system didn't allow the perl upgrade because it could't deinstall-remove, in fact it is a mandatory package! I was wondering if any of you can help me suggesting how to upgrade perl from 5.004 to 5.6. Thanxs in advance Ste _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos è il metodo più semplice per condividere e stampare le tue foto: http://photos.msn.it/Support/WorldWide.aspx -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
