dist-upgraded to hoary without a hitch

Apr 9, 2005 in Open Source Software

Even though I’m going to Mexico for two weeks tomorrow, I decided to lay it all out and dist-upgrade my perfectly fine installation of warty on my work lap
top.

I’m happy to report that it went off without a hitch. Just finished a few more upgrades and will restart X to see if anything breaks, but other than that,
a success.

Good job ubuntu maintainers!
