Yes. Decided to do the dist-upg thing myself just for the hell of it on my Bork install and she is still working well.

As was said earlier thanks Mr Bacon and Siduction. I quite enjoy using a Sid system which is bleeding edge it puts hairs on your chest.

I'm still dist-upgrading like the Evel Knievel of the bleeding edge I'd like to pretend I am.
I lost Gimp, but I got newly fresh TeX.

I was away for too long. Now I see the whole mess. I will just try something. Preferably an apt upgrade on my own risk.
Will report back.

Upgrading...

Today Gimp is back and safe to install again. And as a side note: just dist-upgraded with no issues.

Today I did a d-u after more than a month rather than just upgrading individual packages. It worked well so far but I can see some stuff was removed and not installable right now. It removed 52 packages but I let them go, most of them were just replaced by apt itself.

One a side note, I think d-u's are easier for us with the minimal environments we have. I do not want to know how much breakage you can find in KDE or Gnome. Just look at the Siduction thread. And the less packages you have the better.

^ That's true.
Everything's fine for me now, but over these weeks I lost LibreOffice, Inkscape and Gimp, the latter been available only since this morning.
I am fine with that, but I can feel the pain for the ones who rely heavily upon these tools and are tracking sid.

^ Understandable, but there's a policy: if anything is going to be removed, or in times of transitions, cool down and don't dist-upgrade. Every year, when I go to Europe, I delay all upgrades for around 2, sometimes even 3 or 4 months, depending on the computer I use. Catching up with upgrades after 4 months is as dangerous as upgrading every day if the number one policy ("if not sure, simply cancel the upg") is ignored :D

^ Sure, as they were saying on Siduction: just hold on you d-u horses and you'll be fine.

Or not. ;)
