You'll probably want to touch /var/lib/dpkg/status. Can you give a bit more information about what you're doing, though? It sounds rather dangerous. Installing .debs verbatim on a non-Debian system could break it, as dpkg will keep track of file conflicts with other packages but not with random files lying around from an earlier installation. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
