Does anybody know of a better way to upgrade other than a) reinstalling or b) following UPGRADE.TXT? UPGRADE.TXT basically says to install glibc and pkgtool, then to install absolutely everything, uninstall all of the old packages, then reinstall everything again. Maybe I'm the only one that doesn't want every package installed. I also don't want to go through and do an upgradepkg on every single package (which won't work any way because of the new naming convention). Any thoughts?
