 Just a small note: "upgrade" after "dist-upgrade" is not needed and
shouldn't do anything. The only reason for using "upgrade" is when you want
to update some packages (e.g. to get security updates for them perhaps)
without making any big changes to the system. Otherwise, and, in
particular, in a testing chroot, there is no reason to not always use
"dist-upgrade" AFAIK.
