-#use wml::debian::template title="Upgrading to Debian 2.0 on x86 machines"
-
-<P>To avoid problems in upgrading packages via dpkg, dselect, or dftp 
-(due to possible libc5/libc6 conflicts), a special upgrade procedure is 
-recommended.  This document describes that procedure.
-
-<P>There are several ways to upgrade from an earlier version:
-  <ol>
-  <li>autoup.sh<br>
-       This is a script that will upgrade the programs in the
-     correct order, and even download the deb's for you.  Because
-     of the continuing changes to the archive, a tar archive of the
-     packages that were available at the time autoup.sh was last
-     released is provided.  This is available at the following sites:
-        <ul>
-        <li><a href="https://www.debian.org/releases/hamm/autoup/">https://www.debian.org/releases/hamm/autoup/</a></li>
-        <li><a href="http://archive.debian.org/debian/dists/hamm/main/upgrade-i386/">http://archive.debian.org/debian/dists/hamm/main/upgrade-i386/</a></li>
-        </ul>
-  <li>apt-get<br>
-       This is the command line part of Debian's future
-     package manager.  It knows how to order packages and will
-     download them from a local archive, http, and ftp sites.  It is
-     able to merge the info from several sites, so you can use a CD,
-     an up to date mirror, and a non-us site for the best mix of
-     speed, variety, and latest versions.  
-     Just run 'apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade'.
-     The 'Bo' version is at:
-     <a href="http://archive.debian.org/debian/dists/hamm/main/upgrade-i386/">http://archive.debian.org/debian/dists/hamm/main/upgrade-i386/</a>.
-     The Bo version of apt-get is well tested. apt-get is officially part of the packaging system
-     starting with slink.
-  <li>By hand<br>
-       A HOWTO can be found at:
-     <a href="$HOME/releases/hamm/autoup/libc5-libc6-Mini-HOWTO.html">
-     $HOME/releases/hamm/autoup/libc5-libc6-Mini-HOWTO.html</a>
-     but as the autoup.sh simply automates this process this is the
-     least convenient option.
-  </ol>
-
-<H3>Questions and Answers</H3>
-<pre>
-Q: Why not just use dselect's ftp method like normal?
-A: It will not order the package installation correctly so
-   can't guarantee a smooth upgrade. Work is being done on APT,
-   a new front-end to dpkg. With apt, all future upgrades will
-   be easier than ever and will not suffer from this type of
-   inconvenience.
-
-Q: Ok, I did the upgrade, am I safe to do things again?
-A: Yes, you can use dselect again.

-Robert D. Hilliard <hilliard@debian.org> 25 March 1998
-
-     Debian 2.0 is based on the Gnu libc6 library, while earlier
-Debian versions were based on the libc5 library.  Programs compiled
-to dynamically link with the libc5 libraries will not run with the the
-libc6 libraries, and vice versa.  Debian has developed a method to
-permit binaries compiled for both libraries to coexist on a system,
-and to permit development under either library to be done.
-
-     Because certain libc6 packages are incompatible with some libc5
-packages, it is necessary to remove some libc5 packages and to install
-some libc6 packages before starting the upgrade.  These removals and
-installations must be done in the correct order or the system may be
-left in an unstable state.  Scott Ellis' "Debian libc5 to libc6
-Mini-HOWTO" (available from the Developer's Corner on www.debian.org)
-describes this process, and the user is urged to read and understand
-this document, and to read the text of the script before starting an
-upgrade.  FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY MAY LEAVE
-YOUR SYSTEM IN AN UNSTABLE STATE!  YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
-
-     The latest versions of the following packages from hamm are
-required for the upgrade:
-
-    ldso, libc5, libc6, timezones, locales, ncurses3.0, ncurses3.4,
-    libreadline2, libreadlineg2, bash, libg++272, dpkg, dpkg-dev,
-    dpkg-ftp, dpkg-mountable, libgdbm1, libgdbmg1, perl-base, and
-    perl.
-
-     You must 1.) have these packages available in the current
-directory, 2.) have a local or remote mirror mounted, or 3.) have an
-internet connection to get them by ftp from a mirror.
-
-     If you are upgrading from a buzz (1.1.x) system, the packages in
-the current directory (for option 1.) must include dpkg, version 1.4
-or higher, from a bo mirror or CD.  For options 2.) and 3.) the mirror
-selected must include bo as well as hamm.
-
-     If you plan to use a mounted mirror, you must be prepared to
-enter the full path to your debian mirror when asked.
-
-     If you choose the ftp option, you will be asked to select a US
-mirror (ftp.debian.org), a European mirror (ftp.infodrom.north.de), or
-to enter an alternate site.  If you select an alternate site, you must
-be prepared to enter the path to be used (debian/hamm/hamm/binary-i386
-for many sites; pub/debian/hamm/hamm/binary-i386 for many others).
-
-     Before starting the actual upgrade, this script removes a number
-of packages that, for one reason or another, interfere with the
-upgrade.  Some of these will be replaced with hamm packages by the
-script, others must be reinstalled with dselect after the script has
-run.  The script will write a file "removed-<today's date>" to the
-current directory listing all files that were removed. This file may
-be used as a guide in selecting packages to be installed with
-dselect.  
-
-     It is strongly recommended that you use /usr/bin/script to record
-a transcript of the session - in fact, it is a good idea to use script
-to record any dselect session and anything else that it is desirable
-to record.  Then if any problems develop, you can see what happened.
-script will write this transcript to the file specified as an argument
-- 'script -myfilename', or to the default filename 'typescript'.
-
-     The script must be run with superuser privileges, so either login
-as root or use su or sudo to gain superuser privileges.  Then cd to
-the directory containing the package files (if you are using option
-1), make sure your network connection (ppp or ethernet) is up (if you
-are using optiom 3), enter script '<filename>', then
-'<path-to-autoup.sh>/autoup.sh'.
-
-     Then answer the questions when asked (certain of the newly
-installed programs have interactive configuration scripts).  If the
-required packages are on your local file system it will take about 5
-minutes to run; if they must be obtained by ftp it may take much
-longer, depending on the speed of your network connection.
-
-     When the script finishes, it displays an informative message,
-which is repeated here for ready reference:
-
-libc6 is now installed.  Now run dselect to upgrade the rest of your
-system.[1]  When that's done, reboot with "shutdown -r now" for the
-utmp/wtmp wrapper functions in the upgraded libc5 to take effect.
-
-BTW, if you aren't using it already, check out dselect's "mountable"
-access method.  It's much faster than the standard "mounted" method, and
-it logs everything that happens in /var/log/dpkg-mountable.  You'll want
-to set "Allow overwriting repeated files?" to yes, and for extra speed
-set "Enable MD5 checksumming?" to no.
-
-If you are installing manually using dpkg, remember that all libc6 (g)
-libraries conflict with all the versions of their libc5 (non-g)
-counterparts prior to a certain version which placed libc5 libs in
-/usr/lib/libc5-compat.  This means that they conflict with your bo
-versions of libc5-linked libraries, but not the hamm versions.  For
-example, if you are installing xlib6g, you should install xlib6 from
-hamm first before installing xlib6g unless you have nothing that depends
-on xlib6 in which case you can safely remove it.
-
-All development packages (-dev, -dbg, and -pic) and a number of other
-incompatible packages have been removed during this upgrade procedure
-due to conflicts between libc5 and libc6 versions.  A list of the
-removed packages are in file "removed-<today's date>" in this
-directory.  You will have to re-install any of these packages you
-need.
-
-Finally, remember to fix up wtmp and utmp, otherwise last and
-who and sac, etc. won't work. Here's what Miquel van Smoorenburg
-<miquels@cistron.nl> had to say about this recently in debian-user
-mailing list:
-
-    > 1. You need to update ALL your packages to hamm
-    > 2. Reboot if you haven't done that already
-    > 3. You need to move the wtmp file and truncate the utmp file:
-    >    cd /var/log
-    >    mv wtmp wtmp.libc5
-    >    touch wtmp
-    >    cd /var/run
-    >    cp /dev/null utmp
-    > 4. You might want to reboot again to make sure
-    >
-    > This is because the "struct utmp" and thus the utmp and wtmp
-    > "databases" are different between libc5 and libc6
-
-[1]  Note the following from the libc5-libc6-Mini-HOWTO:
-4.5.  Upgrading to unstable by FTP
-
-  The directory structure of the ftp site has been slightly modified,
-  placing the contrib and non-free sections of the archive alongside the
-  main section, to avoid contrib and non-free getting out of sync with
-  earlier portions of the archives.  You must have dpkg-ftp_1.4.9 or
-  greater to update your machine using dpkg-ftp.  If you are updating
-  your machine via ftp, the proper information to give dpkg-ftp is:
-
-  o  Enter debian directory: /debian
-
-  o  Enter space separated list of distributions to get:
-     dists/frozen/main dists/frozen/non-free dists/frozen/contrib

-TODO: (probably by somebody else.  this script is mostly good enough imo)
-  - this script _still_ needs more error checking :-)
-  - use tee to log what happens.
-
-Revision History:
-
-v0.00: 1998-01-08 (morning)
-  - a rough transcript of scott's doc and my own experiences
-
-v0.01: 1998-01-08 (night)
-  - a few bugfixes
-  - i got unlazy and put in the right subdirectories for each package. 
-    should run a lot faster.
-  - now checks for failure at critical points and exits with a different
-    exit code for each failure.
-  - now uses 'binary-$(dpkg --print-installation-architecture)' instead 
-    of 'binary-i386'.
-
-v0.02: 1998-01-09 
-  - fixed the perl-base/perl install (thanks Lindsay!)
-  - improved the DEVPACKAGES=$(dpkg --get-selections...) and added -dbg
-    packages.
-
-v0.03: 1998-01-09 (p.m.)
-  - fixed some directories
-  - changed "-iB" to "-iBE" so that if the script fails and is run again
-    it will not disturb things already in place.
-  - added a final "dpkg --configure --pending".
-  - sanity check that we are in the right place added
-
-v0.04: 1998-01-10 (Igor Grobman)
-  - made it possible to place all packages in current dir.
-  - added -pic packages to removal list.
-  - make sure dpkg-dev does not get selected for removal.
-  - moved dpkg-ftp and dpkg-mounted to the end.      
-
-v0.05: 1998-01-10 (Igor Grobman)
-  - added a note about upgrading libraries 
-
-v0.06: 1998-01-11 (Craig Sanders)
-  - restructured code to avoid code duplication. 
-  - cleaned up a few things
-  - prints advisory notes telling user what's happening.
-  - added some more instructions on what to do about development packages.
-  - added code to guess some obvious locations for the mirror, otherwise
-    ask user.
-
-v0.07: 1998-01-11 (Craig Sanders)
-  - uh oh.  i hard-coded in binary-i386.  quick...better release another
-    version before James notices.
-
-v0.08: 1998-01-11 (Craig Sanders)
-  - added libpthread0 to the remove list.
-  - fixed PKGS_LIBGPP (i mistyped it as PKGS_GPP)
-  - some old version of perl's postrm didn't delete a .packlist file
-    from /usr/lib/perl5/i486-linux/5.003/auto/Mail/.packlist.  check for
-    it and delete if found before installing perl.
-
-v0.09: 1998-01-13 (Craig Sanders)
-  - added datadumper and libnet-perl to be installed/upgraded before
-    dpkg-ftp.  Thanks, Igor.
-  - changed ` ... ` backticks to $( ... ) for DPKG & LDCONFIG
-    variables at top of script.
-
-v0.10: 1998-01-14 (Craig Sanders)
-  - two reports that xslib depends on xlib6-dev and splay depends on
-    libpthread0. added them to the remove list.
-  - wrote a dependancy checker using my debian sgrep macros and found
-    that the boot-floppies package depends on libc5-pic. added it to
-    remove list.
-  - added "../$ARCH" to $TRY.
-
-v0.11: 1998-01-17 (Craig Sanders)
-  - a user reported that localebin conflicted with libc6.  added to remove
-    list.
-  - fixed potential globbing problem reported by Kirk Hilliard
-    <kirk@ghoti.com>
-  - fixed 'or just hit enter to use "$DEFAULT"' problem reported by 
-    "Robert D. Hilliard" <hilliard@metrolink.net>.  there must be a 
-    Hilliard Conspiracy :-)
-
-v0.12: 1998-01-19 (Robert D. Hilliard <hilliard@metrolink.net>)
-  - modified to fix errors encountered when upgrading a rex filesystem:
-    - force removal of essential package timezone before installing 
-      timezones  
-    - remove xmanpages (if they are present before removing xlib6-dev.)
-    - remove perl-suid and perl-debug before upgrading perl-base and perl.)
-    - install ldso with a separate command from installing libc6 so ldso 
-      will be setup before libc6 is installed.
-    - remove exit-on-error from installation of perl-base and perl
-    - configure --pending after perl installation.
-  - saved names of removed packages in a file
-
-v0.13: 1998-01-21 (Craig Sanders)
-  - fixed globbing problem again for PKGS_LDSO and PKGS_LIBC6
-  - some cosmetic changes 
-  - i didn't like the idea of redirecting error messages to /dev/null
-    so i got rid of it.  I may use tee to save the output of this
-    script in a log file in some hypotherical future version.
-  - '|| exit 9' on the 'dpkg  --configure --pending' line after installing
-     perl.
-
-v0.14: 1998-01-26 (Craig Sanders)
-  - in v0.12, localebin was accidentally deleted from list of packages
-    to be removed.   fixed.
-
-v0.15: 1998-01-26 (Craig Sanders)
-  - i should have checked rob's changes more thoroughly.  yet another fix:
-    added $PKGS_LDSO to ALL_PKGS so that the script checks to see if the
-    ldso package is available to install.  this bug nearly killed someone's
-    system today and i am pissed off.
-  - made the script use --force-overwrite because @^@%@$!^@&^#$ dpkg 1.4.0.20
-    doesn't do it by default anymore.   this also pisses me off.
-  - don't run 'dpkg -r' if there's nothing to remove.
-
-v0.16 1998-01-27 (Craig Sanders)
-  - really added localebin to remove list.
-  - defined $DATE variable.
-  - moved the changelong into a separate file
-
-v0.17: 1998-01-28 (Turbo Fredriksson)
-  - added possibility to download the files via FTP _BEFORE_ attempting to
-    install packages...
-  - buggfixes in the FTP downloading
-
-v0.18: 1998-02-06 (Craig Sanders)
-  - four packages have moved to new subdirs.  fixed
-
-v0.19: 1998-02-07 (Craig Sanders)
-  - fixed "" quotes around $RM_LIST on the dpkg --remove line.
-
-v0.20: 1998-02-14 (Craig Sanders)
-  - added stuff to upgrade libc5 first and upgrade dpkg to bo's latest
-    version in case we are upgrading a buzz system.
-
-v0.21: 1998-02-14 (David Welton <davidw@gate.cks.com>)
-  - David made a whole bunch of changes to 0.19 to support alternate ftp
-    programs. i've just hacked his changes into 0.20.
-
-v0.21.1.3: 1998-03-11 (Robert D. Hilliard <hilliard@metrolink.net>)
-  - Robert fixed the ftp stuff, including the PKGS_LIBC5 problem.
-
-v0.22: 1998-03-26 (Craig Sanders)
-  there were still problems with ncftp. probably caused by the fact that
-  i have ncftp 3.0.0 beta 9 installed. anyway, i decided that futzing
-  around with ncftp was waste of time when plain old ftp was good enough
-  to do the job. i rewrote the ftp stuff like so:
- - removed the ncftp stuff
- - rewrote the ftp function so that it first creates an ftp script
-   file which gets fed into ftp -i -n
- - got rid of the ftpftp function definition and $FTP_FUNC stuff and 
-   shuffled code around so that all the ftp stuff is inside the f)
-   case.
- - deleted some cruft which didn't seem to be in use
-   (e.g.  stuff for lftp and wget, and the $ERROR_FILES variable)
-also:
- - Rob H wrote a good readme for autoup.  i'll be including it on the autoup
-   home page from now on. http://debian.vicnet.net.au/autoup/ is the
-   fastest and most up-to-date site. http://taz.net.au/autoup/ is also
-   always up-to-date but much slower.
-
-v0.23: 1998-03-27 (Miquel van Smoorenburg <miquels@cistron.nl>)
- - Miquel fixed several things, including a few really dumb mistakes i made:
-   - libgdbm1g is in base/, not in devel/
-   - __EOF__ needs to be at the start of the line
-   - `tempfile' is not present on a bo system ..
-   - libc5@libc6 is not a valid password for anonymous on most systems
-   - Install latest libg++27 otherwise libc5-dev cannot be removed
-   - Don't debug, really install
-   - Actually remove -dev packages
-
-v0.24: 1998-04-21 (Craig Sanders)
- - added libstdc++, libslang0.99.34 (libc5), libslang0.99.38 (libc6),
-   netbase, and netstd to the list of packages to install.
- - changed 'unstable' to 'frozen' in various places.
- - sysman@tonelli.sns.it reported that the downloading the files to
-   /var/lib/dpkg/methods/ftp messes up the ftp method somehow.  changed
-   TRY to /tmp/autoup.
-
-v0.25: 1998-04-21 (Craig Sanders)
- - remembered to disable debugging stuff so that the script actually 
-   does something.
-
-v0.26: 1998-05-29 (Craig Sanders)
- - slang has moved from libs to base.
- - netbase must be installed before netstd, not on same line.
- - ALLPKGS was defined twice. once at start of script, and once
-   when SEDSCRIPT had been set. so, existence of netstd and netbase
-   wasn't being checked. changed to just process ALLPKGS with SEDSCRIPT.
- - merged in functionality of make-tarfiles.sh so i don't have to update
-   it every time autoup gets updated.  This will make no difference to
-   most users, it is only useful for people maintaining autoup mirror
-   sites.
-
-v0.27: 1998-05-29 (Craig Sanders)
- - changed 'ln' to 'ln -s' and 'tar cfz' to 'tar chfz' so that the
-   tarball can be created even if the local debian mirror and the
-   autoup directory are on different filesystems.
-
-v0.28: 1998-07-23 (Craig Sanders)
- - libstdc++2.8 has moved from libs/ to base/
- - libnet-perl has moved from interpreters/ to base/
-
-v0.29: 1998-08-15 (Craig Sanders)
- - changed all directory references from 'frozen' to 'stable'
- - fixed PKGS_NET problem (should have been $PKGS_NETBASE and $PKGS_NETSTD)
- - changed RMFILE to "/root/autoup.removed-$DATE"
- - fixed search for bo dpkg (for buzz upgrades).  dpkg 1.4.0.8 lives in 
-   .../debian/dists/stable/main/upgrade-i386 now.  note: still doesn't work for
-   ftp upgrade.   TODO.
- - fixed $FTP_DIR_2
- - changed "^ii" search pattern to "^.i" when searching for installed -dev pkgs
-
-v0.30: 1998-08-15 (Craig Sanders)
- - really changed "^ii" search pattern to "^.i"
-
-v0.31: 1998-08-27 (Craig Sanders)
- - --force-hold added to $DPKG_ARGS and to the "$DPKG --remove" line
-
-v0.32: 1998-08-27 (Craig Sanders)
- - changed the displayed packages list as noted by Rob Hilliard.

-libc6 is now installed.  Now run dselect to upgrade the rest of your
-system.[1]  When that's done, reboot with "shutdown -r now" for the
-utmp/wtmp wrapper functions in the upgraded libc5 to take effect.
-
-BTW, if you aren't using it already, check out dselect's "mountable"
-access method.  It's much faster than the standard "mounted" method, and
-it logs everything that happens in /var/log/dpkg-mountable.  You'll want
-to set "Allow overwriting repeated files?" to yes, and for extra speed
-set "Enable MD5 checksumming?" to no.
-
-If you are installing manually using dpkg, remember that all libc6 (g)
-libraries conflict with all the versions of their libc5 (non-g)
-counterparts prior to a certain version which placed libc5 libs in
-/usr/lib/libc5-compat.  This means that they conflict with your bo
-versions of libc5-linked libraries, but not the hamm versions.  For
-example, if you are installing xlib6g, you should install xlib6 from
-hamm first before installing xlib6g unless you have nothing that depend
-on xlib6 in which case you can safely remove it.
-
-All development packages (-dev, -dbg, and -pic) and a number of other
-incompatible packages have been removed during this upgrade procedure
-due to conflicts between libc5 and libc6 versions.  A list of the
-removed packages are in file $RMFILE in this directory.
-You will have to re-install any of these packages you need.
-
-Finally, remember to fix up wtmp and utmp, otherwise last and
-who and sac etc won't work. here's what Miquel van Smoorenburg
-<miquels@cistron.nl> had to say about this recently in debian-user
-mailing list:
-
-    > 1. You need to update ALL your packages to hamm
-    > 2. Reboot if you haven't done that already
-    > 3. You need to move the wtmp file and truncate the utmp file:
-    >    cd /var/log
-    >    mv wtmp wtmp.libc5
-    >    touch wtmp
-    >    cd /var/run
-    >    cp /dev/null utmp
-    > 4. You might want to reboot again to make sure
-    > 
-    > This is because the "struct utmp" and thus the utmp and wtmp
-    > "databases" are different between libc5 and libc6

-[1]  Note the following from the libc5-libc6-Mini-HOWTO:
-4.5.  Upgrading to stable by FTP
-
-  The directory structure of the ftp site has been slightly modified,
-  placing the contrib and non-free sections of the archive alongside the
-  main section, to avoid contrib and non-free getting out of sync with
-  earlier portions of the archives.  You must have dpkg-ftp_1.4.9 or
-  greater to update your machine using dpkg-ftp.  If you are updating
-  your machine via ftp, the proper information to give dpkg-ftp is:
-
-  o  Enter debian directory: /debian
-
-  o  Enter space separated list of distributions to get:
-     dists/stable/main dists/stable/non-free dists/stable/contrib

-
-<P>The Debian project is currently in the process of putting together the next
-release of the Debian system.  This version will utilize the new libc6, a
-replacement for the prior libc5 which includes many enhancements and brings
-the Linux C library back into sync with the GNU project.  We are doing this
-in a way to allow you to continue to utilize your older software by
-providing development and operating environments for both C libraries. 
-However, all packages in the new release will be linked with the new C
-library.  This has made it slightly more difficult to install packages from
-the unstable branch of our development tree into a working system.  There is
-a slight possibility of making your system unbootable in the process, this
-guide is intended to help you avoid such problems.

-</H2>
-
-
-<P>While you can install many libc6 package with just ldso and libc6, you will
-probably want to upgrade a few other packages as well.  Since bash-2.01
-fixes problems experienced with Netscape and helper applications, it is one
-of the more likely packages to need updated.  However, it is also one of the
-few packages that is capable of rendering your system useless if upgraded
-incorrectly.  Install the packages below one at a time in exactly the order
-listed.
-</P><EM>IMPORTANT: If you use dselect to do the initial upgrade of these
-packages, there is a very good possibility of breaking bash and therefore
-making your system unusable.</EM>

-<P>These packages are not absolutely essential for the functioning of the
-packages in unstable, but are still very useful.  The new dpkg-dev may be
-necessary for unpacking source archives from unstable, and the new dpkg-ftp
-is needed if you wish to use the ftp method of dselect to upgrade your
-system to the unstable distribution.

-<H2><A NAME="ss4.1">4.1 Upgrading to libc6_2.0.5c-0.1</A>
-</H2>

-</P>
-<H2><A NAME="ss4.2">4.2 /sbin/e2fsck</A>
-</H2>
-
-<P>The e2fsck program in e2fsprogs_1.10-4 has a bug in it which will cause it
-to destroy data on partitions above 2GB in size.  The version in
-e2fsprogs_1.10-7 has fixed this bug.  <EM>IMPORTANT: If you run the older
-libc6-based e2fsck on a 2 GB or greater partition, YOU WILL LOSE DATA.</EM>
-</P>
-<H2><A NAME="ss4.3">4.3 /usr/bin/gencat</A>
-</H2>
-
-<P>Note also that both the man-db and the libc6-dev packages currently include
-<CODE>/usr/bin/gencat</CODE>.  The version of gencat in libc6-dev has been
-reported to cause segfault problems with man-db, you may wish to reinstall
-man-db after libc6-dev if you experience these problems.
-</P>
-<H2><A NAME="ss4.4">4.4 /etc/nsswitch.conf (NIS/YP)</A>
-</H2>
-
-<P>Handling of NIS/YP has changed slightly with libc6.  If you are using NIS,
-you will probably need to change <CODE>/etc/nsswitch.conf</CODE>, the <CODE>compat</CODE>
-option will preserve the libc5 behavior.  You should also change the
-<CODE>networks</CODE> line from <CODE>files dns</CODE> to <CODE>files</CODE>.  This will prevent
-network configuation programs from attempting to resolve hostnames.
-</P>
-<H2><A NAME="ss4.5">4.5 Upgrading to unstable by FTP</A>
-</H2>
-
-<P>The directory structure of the ftp site has been slightly modified, placing
-the contrib and non-free sections of the archive alongside the main section,
-to avoid contrib and non-free getting out of sync with earlier portions of
-the archives.  You must have dpkg-ftp_1.4.9 or greater to update your
-machine using dpkg-ftp.  If you are updating your machine via ftp, the
-proper information to give dpkg-ftp is:
-</P>
-<UL>

-<H2><A NAME="ss4.6">4.6 libc5_5.4.33-6</A>
-</H2>
-
-<P>Debian 1.3.1r4 included an update to libc5 which conflicts with libc6.  The
-conflict was added because of problems with locales and the format of the
-utmp/wtmp files.  An older version of libc5 which doesn't conflict, as well

-
-<P>Several packages in Debian 2.0 have been updated since its release
-on July 24th to reflect security enhancements and other changes too
-important to leave until the next major release.
-
-<P>Debian is committed to providing security updates to the stable
-distribution as quickly as possible, but we also need time to thoroughly
-test such updates to ensure that they meet our high standards.
-
-<P>Those who wish to assist in the testing process or feel that a
-particular vulnerability is too critical to wait for Debian's own testing
-process may retrieve updated packages from the
-<a href="http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/proposed-updates/">proposed-updates</a>
-distribution.  Those using the new package tool <EM>apt</EM> may wish
-to add the following line to their <code>/etc/apt/sources.list</code> file
-to facilitate easy upgrades to the newer packages, changing the URI as
