I encountered the same problem as freedom but with different repercussions.
3 days ago ago when I went to do a dist-upgrade on a brand new install, 60+ packages are listed to be removed. So I aborted the upgrade.
Oddly, even though I had aborted the dist-upgrade, I then could not launch KDE because of a "seg fault".
I repeated the fresh install yesterday and again went to do a dist upgrade 12 hours ago. I had the same issue of 60+ packages listed to be removed. Again, I aborted the upgrade and again I could not launch KDE because of a "seg fault". I've been around since the kanotix days and I've never encountered anything like this.
I have not added KDENEXT to the repos.
I don't want to use aptitude (in keeping with my handle
)
So, do I just have to wait?
