Not this time. But, I would hazard a guess that nearly a third of the 
problems noted on this list, in the past, start with "I just 
dist-upgraded and...", just after the new official release comes out. 
So, I pick and choose what I add back to my new home directory very 
carefully, instead of dropping it ALL back into place.

I'm too old and cranky to go through another round of pouring over log 
files when stuff starts to break. I leave that bit to the young and 
inquisitive. <grins evilly> Ric
