Hi,

the x86_64 thing on the login is rather effectless.

The real problems are :

1) That the large upgrade cannot be done at once but rather in 2-3
steps. You have to do smart upgrade several times until it does not
install any longer new packages.

2) The earlier perl rebuilds have been broken. The last one does work
here. Since yaird ( the mkinitrd replacement ) does rely on perl it
failed earlier.

3) If a new kernel is installed you have to verify manually that there
is a new initrd in /boot/ . Only reboot when you verified this. If not
you have to manually create a new initrd image. Furthermore you have
to add the  new kernel manually to your bootloader. There are ways to
do this automatically . But it only works for grub and lilo anyway.
Also you still have to do this manually if you have an uncommon
bootloader setup.

4) Smart install urw-fonts to solve the squared letters.


I don't know how to get the fonts back, looking nice.

Fabian any ideas ?

regards
