As I said before in another reply, "perhaps some apt-get magic"... It worked. Thanks !!! > You should then be able to upgrade the rest of your stuff from within > dselect. If there is still stuff held back post again. apt-get install python removed python-base and upgraded all of the packages but one. Then, with dselect I upgraded that one (python1.5-tk) and it also removed python1.5-base. -- Daniel Toffetti --- 'There is no spoon...' - The Matrix Running the bleeding edge Debian Sid version 3.0 Linux luni 2.4.13 #1 SMP Sun Oct 28 18:30:53 ART 2001 i686 unknown -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
