Thanks. I've pinned udev. Any hint on how to avoid this kind of thing in the
future with some other package upgrade? I was using synaptic, added testing
to the repository after installing sarge, and then chose "Mark All Upgrades".
I thought that part of "debian way" of package management was preventing a
package being installed without its dependencies being present or at least
installed at the same time. Or is this something peculiar to a kernel
dependency? (Or do I just have the wrong conception of the whole scheme?)
