Well, can probably "fake" that the base-files upgrade already happened by doing this: Edit /var/lib/dpkg/status, search for base-files and change Version by hand. Change /etc/debian_version by hand.can probably "fake" that the base-files upgrade already happened by doing this: Maybe some other thing I can't remember right now.
