What I did right after I sent the email was I copied all the current
feisty lines in my sources list and replaced the feisty with gutsy, then
did
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade

apt-update grabbed the repositories ( which don't exist ...wink ...wink )
and apt-get upgrade is currently still running.

I will let you know how it goes.
