If you have read the release notes (which recommend using aptitude for the dist-upgrade AFAIR) and do the recommended steps described there, it works without any glitches in most cases. The small proportion of problematic ones with some glitches tend to be desktop installs if I'm not mistaken. The real problem in a production environment is checking your conffiles, verifying that everything still works etc. Regards, Frank -- Frank Küster Single Molecule Spectroscopy, Protein Folding @ Inst. f.
