Hello,

Thanks for the reply, but now I have restarted the install of squeeze  
from scratch, using the minimal installation, and I tried to do things  
more properly, or at least I hope so (apt-get upgrade before  
dist-upgrade). Then the problem did not appear, but this could be due  
to either change (using the minimal install of squeeze, or doing an  
apt-get upgrade first). Now I have a working installation of testing,  
and this is my main work computer, so I can't go back and try to  
reproduce the problem, sorry (I can only retry later on another  
computer). However, even if I didn't do things properly first, it  
still looks like a bug, and other people already had the problem, like:

(not much detail there, but same messages in same circumstances)

Best regards,

-- 
Eric
