Moin,
seems like in the dist-upgrade from etch to lenny is one very annoying (and
old, AFAIR I hit it already in woody->sarge and sarge->etch) problem: perl is
in an unusable state during the upgrade and causes maintainer scripts to
fail.
I was following way:
- update from etch and etch-security
-
Moin,
seems like something went wrong during the etch 4.0r1 update on the ftp
mirrors: the old etch kernel packages got removed from the archive, but are
still referenced in the package lists.
therefore from-scratch-generating a local mirror using "debmirror" fails, as
it can not download various k

Moin,
bug #279232 is assigned to doc-base, though it is (as to my analysis) a perl
problem (see the thread in the BTS). This prevents clean dist-upgrades from
woody to sarge.
what do you think about the solution (using pre-depends and conflicts)?

I must have some supernatural powers to always attract the same bug: woodys
apt fed too short lists into dpkg and thus broke the configuration of
circular depending packages (Note: "dpkg --configure blah blubb", where blah
depends on blubb and blubb depends on blah works; if you try to run it

Moin,
what are the "license problems" causing the removal of aspell in the
update to 3.0r2 ?
do these problems exist in debian unstable ?
if not: why was aspell _removed_ from stable and not replaced by a
backport of the version in unstable ?
