Hi

My Debian machine was built when Sarge was the current release and has
worked, without issue for me ever since. 

I recently tried to get the new Spotify plugin working but found that
the helper app wouldn't run, after a little reading I discovered that I
had a version of libc that was too old so I tried to update it using
apt-get. I think the upgrade of libc worked, however I then discovered
that Squeezebox server would no longer run, I can't uninstall it
(apt-get says that it's not installed) and I can't install it (apt-get
says something along the lines of "missing dependancies... and then
hangs). I tried a dist-upgrade and that failed in the same way.

I'm thinking that there must be some way to recover the system, it
still boots OK and I can access the system via PuTTy. To me it seems
that I can either make a new installation CD and do a fresh install
(all music is backed up) or possibly try a kernel upgrade and then an
dist-upgrade to lenny. Anyone have any ideas?
