has anyone upgraded to testing or unstable


I am just wondering if anyone has upgraded libranet 2.7 to testing or unstable successfully.

I just wondering if there are any issues before doing it.

I did awhile ago, back when I was running 2.7. It is not as simple as running apt-get dist-upgrade, but it can be. There are conflicts that have to be sorted out with -f install, sometimes packages have to be forced in, and dist-upgrade needs to be run a few times to ensure that all dependancies get installed. And then you may have to individually install packages that were removed, and/or make new configuration files for packages that have changed.
Or things may go well and everything installs with no problem. So it is just a mater of how lucky you feel and how well you are at reading apt error messages.
