last i checked (messed up) the db was plain text and if you ... it. :)
let me rephrase that to be more proper / technical - no transaction,
no roll back, no *log, no integrity
i'm not the op (obviously) however, would it be possible to override a
package's dependancies using apt-file with specific prerequisites? ie,
if i wanted to tell every package that required libc6 to go ahead and
install ignoring libc6 (knowing that i'd eventually break every new
package) could i?
I'm assuming that this is done through update-menus ?
update-menus seems to be happy with the file I put in /etc/menu
However it doesn't show up in the menu. More interestingly there doesn't seem
to be a
menu-method for lxpanel.
does lxpanel use a separate mechanism for menus ?

NAT _can_ either block incoming connections or not, it depends on the
type of NAT being done. 1:1 NAT without port translation, for example,
will only block something if you firewall it.

Yes. Do you want to have a current snapshot (i.e. what's in the base
system today) or a specific older one?
In article

We don't do things that way any more. Debootstrap is the tool you want

Good time of the day.
I have up-to-date Debian6 w/ KDE 4.4.5. The problem is that I can not
use shortcut keys - for clean experiment I did so under a new user - no
effect. If it works in the named version, what I can do to make it
working?
Thanks for Your time.
