[KLUG Members] debian question

[Patrick Stockton]

So I'm probably going about this in the entirely wrong way but here's 
the deal.  I decided that running stable debian was just a little too 
low key so I decided to go with unstable and life life on the edge :)

I updated my /etc/apt/sources.list file and changed every instance of 
"stable" to "unstable"

I ran an 'apt-get update'

Then ran an 'ap-get dist-upgrade' and it downloaded all the upgraded 
packages that it needed.

Then we get this wonderful little error message:


Okey,Fetched 62.9MB in 28m24s (36.9kB/s) 

90% [Scanning packages]Template parse error near "" at 
/usr/lib/perl5/Debian/DebConf/Template.pm line 102, <TEMPLATES> chunk 2.
E: Sub-process /usr/sbin/dpkg-preconfigure --apt returned an error code (29)
E: Failure running script /usr/sbin/dpkg-preconfigure --apt

Obviously there is a package out of whack.  Any clues as to how to get 
around it?
