Hi Daniel,

I'm using the testing branch of 64Studio, with no other sources. I tried 
an upgrade last week, but it had problems, which I reported.

As you suggested above, I tried removing the 64studio package and then 
reinstalling. I got an error about setting up sysv-rc-bootsplash when I 
removed the package. Then I got errors when trying to reinstall.

E: /var/cache/apt/archives/cdd-utils_0.3_all.deb: trying to overwrite 
`/usr/lib/tasksel/packages/kernel', which is also in package 
64studio-tasksel-data

And I'm still having the same flashplugin-nonfree and nspluginwrapper 
errors:

flashplugin-nonfree:
  Depends: ia32-libs-gtk but it is not going to be installed
  Depends: nspluginwrapper but it is not going to be installed

nspluginwrapper:
  Depends: ia32-libs but it is not going to be installed
  Depends: lib32gcc1 but it is not going to be installed
  Depends: libc6-i386 but it is not going to be installed
  Depends: ia32-libs but it is not going to be installed
  Depends: ia32-libs-gtk but it is not going to be installed

Here are the details:
