Hi,
I've recently upgraded my Woody machine to Sarge, and most every is
fine, except some packages did not seem to be upgraded and now when I
run 'apt-get upgrade' I get - "The following packages have been kept
back: ". I knew of a way to be able to upgrade those packages anyway,
but I can't seem to remember, unless something's changed or different
now and I just can't upgrade them without uninstalling and re-installing.
Can somebody please tell me how I can now upgrade some of these
packages? A couple of the packages are 'locales' and 'ntp-refclock'.
First, you need to be using dist-upgrade to go from one stable release
to the next. Second, you *really* need to be using aptitude.
I'd be help to just include the output of the aptitude dist-upgrade.
You can also look at the sarge release notes about woody upgrades.
Thanks for your replies, but I believe aptitude is a GUI application and
I forgot to point out that my machine is a server - no GUI, no KDE, no
Gnome. I have tried 'dpkg -i locales' but that didn't do the trick either:
dpkg: error processing locales (--install):
cannot access archive: No such file or directory
Errors were encountered while processing:
locales
Any more suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Robert
