You do realize that is why we have a 'Packages' file? In any event your script is not handling virtual pacakges, ppp is a virtual package. Here is a list of all unmet deps in main: Package chameleon version 1.0-2 has an unmet dep: Depends: libglib1.1.12 (>= 1.1.12-1) Depends: libgtk1.1.12 (>= 1.1.12-1) (Ehm? This one is new, someone should fix it) A list of unmet suggests/recommends in main is too long to include here. Jason
