Well, yes, it's failing to install :) Kind of weird, that's what I thought... But since I'm running Qmail on this system, and I receive lots of mail with it, I just wanted to be sure it's wise to use to --force-yes option with apt-get before i ruin everything. So I can go ahead and just force it to install ? Thanks, Dick -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
