Titel: Help with apt-get dist-upgrade.
I was just trying to dist-upgrade and I got a message that read "unable to parse package file

/etc/apt/preferences (1)" . Could someone advise me on what to do now? I don't know much,

but I know a lot more than I did just by lurking about this forum! So I just want to thank you

folks that know your stuff and take the time and effort to participate in these forums.

sully,
Code:
echo >> /etc/apt/preferences
apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade

be sure to do the dist-upgrade in init 3
i would advice you to use the following script, because it does all the fixes:

even easier would be an update-install with RC2
