Package: apt Version: all While upgrading slink to potato on my laptop with apt, getting the files over an NFS mounted directory, when apt reached the point where it needed to upgrade pcmcia-cs and pcmcia-modules it rmmod-ed the pcmcia modules, stopped cardmgr and deleted all of the them. After that apt promptly died because the NFS directory he was reading was gone :) And i stood there and looked at my (now) half-updated, cannot-find-/usr/lib/xyz.so-screaming, network-less laptop.
Did the same thing (on a second laptop) when selecting APT Source from dpkg (the owner almost killed me :)... PLEEEEASE Fix that before freezeing potato... I searched almost 2 hours for a good floppy to transfer the pcmcia-cs.deb and pcmcia-modules.deb on the laptops and install them by hand. Thank god I didn't update over ppp...
