A dist-upgrade should be relatively painless. But as it is software it can break. First do update then a normal upgrade. Then try the dist-upgrade. If your package manager threatens to upgrade or install lots of packages and you don't like it, you can still abort and try the manual approach. -- Maurits van Rees | http://maurits.vanrees.org/ [Dutch/Nederlands] Public GnuPG key: keyserver.net ID 0x1735C5C2 "Let your advance worrying become advance thinking and planning." - Winston Churchill
