Good combination, looks like mine :-) (even though I am on D/testing and TDE/git sources) > hal-trinity libqt3-mt were marked as "automatically installed and are no > longer required" Can someone please confirm they can be safely purged? On v14.0.0 they are no longer required. Actually on Debian/testing hal is no longer provided at all for Linux (only for *bsd). qt3 has also been replaced by tqt3. > Someone else did mention what I forgot: do a backup before any major upgrade Always a good point.
