Well... Netpkg upgrade-all, as stated before (and in this very thread), is to be used with caution (always). Especially now that the repository is in the process of being restored.

Thanks, hyperion, that sounds good.

Is the repository fully repaired and brought up-to-date at the moment?

Borromini · **Posted:** Thu Mar 23, 2006 12:25 pm

Yes, the repository is fully functional now.

Has anyone tried a full upgrade? init 3? init 4?

Code:

netpkg upgrade-new

I did a full upgrade once I installed 2.2 a week ago, I've had no issues. YMMV

I didn't have any problems upgrading today. I did:

Code:

init 3
netpkg upgrade-new

It's likely to... Which Zenwalk are you running? A clean install is recommended

.

colossus · **Posted:** Fri Mar 24, 2006 10:30 am

I forgot the version, how can I know ?

colossus · **Posted:** Fri Mar 24, 2006 10:35 am

[gt@Paradise Xarchiver-0.4]$ cat /etc/zenwalk-version
Zenwalk 2.4
[gt@Paradise Xarchiver-0.4]$

So will it broke my zenwalk ?

Hm. Did you upgrade the aaa package already? Zenwalk 2.4 is what new packages are built for, it's the next release. The latest one is 2.2.

colossus · **Posted:** Fri Mar 24, 2006 11:03 am

Yes, I upgraded aaa-base this very morning; upgrade-new will also replace the current conf files with the .new ones inside the packages right ?

As u r speaking of it, when willt it be released? I hope it has fixed some of those minor issues (udev, iirc).
Cant wait for a next fulworking release anymore ^^

Erm... 2.2 is a fully working release ;-). I think, since udev is pretty new when it comes to managing hotplug's tasks, it's pretty common that it has some issues - unfortunately.
