I was thinking the same thing, so far my attempts at updating the 'debian' way, has broken the Easy Debian completely. I left it updating last night, and it rebooted in the middle of the night, and now it's completely jacked.

Easy Debian is based around Debian Lenny (Lenny is the release name for 5.0.x) and some packages of Debian Squeeze (Squeeze is the release name for 6.0.x).

So otherwise, we're asking for a full on Debian 6.0 version of Easy Debian.

You must not upgrade libncurses5. This is what breaks the dist-upgrade including the image and Maemos easy debian installation.
I didn't check it into the very detail, but it seems to me like replacing libncurses.so.5 from within the running system breaks the connection between the debian-chroot and Maemo.

If you set libncurses5 on hold the rest of the dist-upgrade should work fine.
