Well, I tried the environment variable setting. It allowed me to go a bit further. Now the packages are downloaded, but as soon as the download is finished the upgrade crashes with a "segmentation fault". This was already happening if the upgrade was performed as non root through "sudo", but now it's happening directly as root. So I still need to "apt-get install" those new packages... -- Javier
