Hi everyone, In an effort to combat complacency, I'm upgrading one of my Debian boxes to unstable (sid). It's currently running testing (woody). Here's the output from apt-get dist-upgrade (following an apt-get update, of course) and a subsequent apt-get -f install. copland:/home/wilson# apt-get dist-upgrade Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these. Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies: libgnome32: Depends: gnome-libs-data (>= 1.2.13-2) but 1.2.11-ximian.1 is installed libgnomesupport0: Depends: gnome-libs-data (>= 1.2.13-2) but 1.2.11-ximian.1 is installed libgnomeui32: Depends: gnome-libs-data (>= 1.2.13-2) but 1.2.11-ximian.1 is installed E: Unmet dependencies.
