You can use the apt-get-download-only option of apt-get to download the files for an install without actually unpacking and setting up the packages. For example:
# wajig update # apt-get --download-only dist-upgrade |
In this way you are able to leave the download unattended and when you are ready you can monitor the unpacking and setup.
If things go wrong somewhere the apt may be able to help. The apt-get-fix-broken will do its best:
# apt-get --fix-broken dist-upgrade |
but if things still don't work, you may need to use dpkg directly to remove and isntall packages.
