They do blur... Your notes are correct for dependency-boot upgrade failures. I've just checked the squeeze release notes and: http://www.debian.org/releases/squeeze/amd64/release-notes/ch-whats-new.en.html#dependency-boot so it was a squeeze change even though according to this page https://wiki.debian.org/LSBInitScripts/DependencyBasedBoot it was originally a lenny release goal. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
