for those “perl” should provide a smooth upgrade path. In which way  
did they block the upgrade so that you had to remove them manually?

Could you provide a transcript of this issue? “fetchmail” seems to  
replace “fetchmail-common” properly on the first glance.

Kind regards,

How to reproduce: 
  Install a woody chroot with fetchmail (which depends
  on fetchmail-common). Retarget apt at sarge.
  apt-get -f dist-upgrade
  will not upgrade fetchmail because this involve removing fetchmail-common.
  aptitude install fetchmail -f
  will propose to fix that.

Solution: 
  Use 'aptitude dist-upgrade' instead. This will remove fetchmail-common
  for you. 'aptitude dist-upgrade' is the recommended way to upgrade to
  sarge.

Thanks for your reports,

2005-05-16 Thread Marco Bertolini - Sal 
Package: upgrade-reports

Archive date: Sun May 15 19:00:02 UTC 2005
uname -a: Linux charas 2.4.29 #10 Sat Mar 26 15:40:33 CET 2005 i686
GNU/Linux 
Method: apt-get -f dist-upgrade

Contents of /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb http://ftp.it.debian.org/debian sarge main contrib non-free
deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/ testing main

- Were there any non-Debian packages installed before the upgrade?  If
  so, what were they?

I used amule, amavisd-new, clamav, dovecot from the backports.org
archive.

I also used xbindkeys and xbindkeys-config from

deb http://b.berteau.free.fr/ stable main

Finally I installed mplayer from marillat repository


- Was the system pre-update a pure woody system? If not, which packages
  were not from woody?

Apart from the previously described unofficial woody packages, the
sistem was a pure woody system.

- Did any packages fail to upgrade?

No packages failed to upgrade.

- Were there any problems with the system after upgrading?


Further Comments/Problems:

I had to manually uninstall libtime-hires-perl, libdigest-md5-perl
and libmime-base64-perl. Anyway the further was signaled to me
by deborphan.
I also had to upgrade fetchmail by itself, beacuse the system wasn't
able to remove fetchmail-common


Please attach the output of "COLUMNS=200 dpkg -l" (or "env COLUMNS ...",
depending on your shell) from before and after the upgrade so that we
know what packages were installed on your system.

Doh! I forgot to save the output before the upgrade. I hope that the
output after the upgrade will be useful
