Hi, List :-)
I have been holding fire in changing my desktop from my nice stable TDE on
Squeeze until TDE for Wheezy sounded less dicey. I then delayed further
when it recently stabilised because I had too much else going on in my
life, and as I said, my system is great. I love TDE 3.5.13.2.
But the time has come to upgrade. Other things have simmered down a bit,
anyhow temporarily, so the time has come.
In the past, I have always reinstalled. This time I want to try upgrading.
When I edit my sources.list, I assume that I change the word squeeze to
wheezy in my TDE repositories too? (Including Slávek's.) And that I just
do a standard Debian update, dist-upgrade? (Yes, I have read the release
notes. And yes, I shall make sure that I have got at least two backups of
my data in at least two different places.)
All advice and tips welcome. "Just go ahead"s perhaps even more welcome!
Thanks,
Lisi
On one of my work machines, I simply changed the apt sources squeeze to wheezy
and then apt-get update, apt-get upgrade, apt-get dist-upgrade. It went
smoothly.
It occurs to me the only thing is to watch out for: on Wheezy is not available
Trinity applet for NetworkManager. If you use it, you must hold a version for
Squeeze.
