I edited the /var/lib/dpkg/status file for grub* and gnumach* but even
if the status line reads:
Package: gnumach-image-1.3.99-486-dbg
Status: hold ok installed
the status is reported as half-configured??
hF gnumach-image-1.3.99-486-dbg
2:1.3.99.dfsg.git20120610-1
Is some backup version used? Looks like old dpkg.status.?{,.gz} files
are stored at: /usr/backups.
Had the same problem before with gnumach-image-1.3.99-486, now no longer
present. The other package status changes seemed to work.
