apt-get dist-upgrade did not finish! It stopped and
went to a ready prompt immediatly after the error message.
No new kernel was installed, for example. And even though
it thinks it finished, I don't think it did. If someone can
confirm that the installation of netatalk is the last thing
that apt-get dist-upgrade was supposed to do and that it
does not install a new kernel, then I might agree that
everything is done.

You still haven't said what's not working... just that you saw something
that might have been an error message possibly related to installing or
activating appletalk, and you fear that your apt-get dist-upgrade
failed. Usually if an apt upgrade dies, dpkg will have pending packages
to install/configure. Your dpkg doesn't. Barring any more specifics on
this appletalk message... since dpkg and apt seem 100% happy, the most
rational conclusion is they've completed successfully.
