Ok, well so far i have updated Xfree864.20mdk-1 to mdk-2, koffice and various utilities. the Program explains decencies in the info package and tells you which dependencies haven't been satisfied. But aside from that, could i just update an entire system from an ftp server by simply selecting every updated package for my system, letting it all download and install, and hopefully it should work?
