Question for #Debian users:
I'm running testing on my laptop, as I have been for a couple decades. I've been waiting for the t64 transition to settle out before resuming updating packages.
I think the transition is now (mostly?) done, but aptitude is still flummoxed when trying to resolve 1300+ package updates.
I've tried to find small groups of packages that I can manually select and upgrade, but with few exceptions pulling on one of these threads quickly leads to a tangled mess of broken packages.
Any advice for how to tackle this would be most appreciated!
