Answer the Fawn

Saturday, February 3rd, 2007

Ok, now that was lame.

Anyway, I’ve just upgraded perlis to Feisty Fawn at the wake of some 1169 MB worth of packages. An apt-get autoclean is therefore in order. I’ve also yet to test hibernation and resume, but knetworkmanager definitely impressed me. Too bad it doesn’t have ifupdown integration yet (which I’ve just done to wlassistant now, pending testing and REVU.)

Just about the only snag I got caught while upgrading was a file overwriting of some .pngs by adept. Since I was upgrading using adept-updater I had to work around using dpkg -i --force-extract and resuming the dist-upgrade using aptitude. I was told in #kubuntu-devel that it will had to be fixed later, and even though I may be able to fix it, it’ll be hard finding a main component sponsor since it’s a weekend. :/

Oh well, life exec()s on. Anyhow I’m too early for upgrade testing (which is on the 8th,) but the outlook for dist-upgrades looks good. And, I’ve other stuff to ponder about, like finishing Philosophy and Procedures 2 of my NM application
