I'm not sure, but I suspect that my "dist upgrade" issues might be
related to geda-symbols.

gEDA 1.6.0 symbols will not work with any older versions of libgeda, so
I added a conflicts between them. (The latest libgeda adds support for
some new syntax in the symbol file, and some symbols use it.)

This may have been what caused apt-get to require a dist-upgrade, the
fact that it explicitly had to de-install the old libgeda, perhaps
before it wanted to.

Best wishes,

Peter C.
