So I suspected; thanks for the reassurance!
When I tried it, it told me it had nothing unfinished. :-{ So I
hit it one more time with the distro-sync, adding --skip-broken for good
measure. This time it also took off like a scalded cat, but presently
came to a stop, apparently in medias res, and after a little while
started up again, until another stop. All the stops have been different,
but all come while "processing dependency." So I'm keeping all the
fingers I can crossed. Stay tuned.
Excuse me. A question or two?
You messed up an upgrade over a week ago, maybe two(?), and you still
have no solution.
How would this time spend 'broken' compare with the time it would have
taken to copy your important files, format the drive, and install the
never release. Then put back your files and do the tweaks?
