in reply to the request to upgrade to frozen as posted on debian-user-digest here are my findings. I wanted to upgrade to frozen for a long time but was postponing it since i didn't want to go through formatting my HD and having to go through customizing all my programs again. For the lists in dselect seemed to be pretty messed up at the time i didn't think an apt-upgrade would be an option. However I figured i didn't have anything to loose in the first place I changed the dist to frozen and ran dselect. Everything went seemlessly and after rebooting everything worked fine and I had my settings just the way I like them (X cosmetics, aliases, you name it). So as far as I'm concerned upgrading is a definite must now :). In case you wondered, my basic reason for upgrading was the upgrade from libc6 2.0.x to 2.1.x that goes with the upgrade from stable to frozen. so well here I am and Debian has once again proven to be the best choice - it was my first linux distribution and it will always stay my favourite - especially compared to the oh so favourite (by the masses at least) Red Hat. thanks debian developers! could'nt live without dselect / apt-get or dpkg for that matter.
