Hi Michael,
I had something similar on Christmas day, just before I was about to
use xmms to play random tracks to guests!
1) Do the apt-get update thing a day later. then dist-upgrade.
AND/OR
2) Keep apt-get installing and eventually everything will be there.
Yes I was cursing Debian for a while. But Crikey, it's beena while since the
last difficult upgrade.
With much fear and hesistation, I did the same thing a week later on
A VERY IMPORTANT MACHINE. No problems.
