Young Jonathan Riddell of Ubuntu saw my post on problems upgrading Kubuntu 6.06 to 6.10 and asked for additional information (I can call him young because I am twice his age!). I sent to him all that I could recall but he notes on his own blog that "upgrading from Dapper [6.06] to Edgy [6.10] is nasty, apt's dist-upgrade just doesn't work in too many cases. So we need to port the Ubuntu upgrader tool to Kubuntu, which should be possible now that pyKDE is said to work with the embedded Konsole." I'm no expert, but all I can say is Amen!, Brother Jonathan. The Friend speaks my mind!
