Conflicts: ssh (<< 1:3.8.1p1-9), ssh-nonfree (<< 2), ssh-socks, ssh2, sftp, rsh-client (<< 0.16.1-1), ssh-krb5 (<< 1:4.3p2-7) Why isn't that working? > Second, even with ssh-krb5 updated to the new dummy version, the > conffile ownership transfer doesn't work.

Similarly, I don't understand this either. There is a Replaces that should make dpkg accept this without any issues. Replaces: ssh (<< 1:3.8.1p1-9), openssh-client (<< 1:3.8.1p1-11), ssh-krb5 (<< 1:4.3p2-7) I didn't run into this problem in my upgrade testing, but maybe somehow I did something on a different sequence than you did? But on a theoretical level, I don't understand at all how this could be happening when the Conflicts and Replaces are already in place. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
