Funny... doing a dist-upgrade doesn't remove my "home made packages"! When doing a simple apt-get install apt it does! Using that option it reports: Package xchat has broken dep on gdk-pixbuf Considering gdk-pixbuf 3 as a solution to xchat 0 Reinst Failed because of libgtk1.2 Removing xchat rather than change gdk-pixbuf (There's more packages with this, I'm using this one as an example.) Another thing: Package libgimp1.1.17 has broken dep on libgtk1.2 Considering libgtk1.2 28 as a solution to libgimp1.1.17 1 Removing libgimp1.1.17 rather than change libgtk1.2 And because of this apt removes gimp also! Why!!?? Shouldn't it at least have the decency to reinstall another version!? And in the dist-upgrade the package isn't even mentioned! Now I've noticed another thing. Beside x-chat, I have instaled gaim and some other programs that in the Woody release are compiled against gnome. So, doing a dist-upgrade I get all those packages upgraded as well as gnome-* (where * denotes libs,bin,etc...). This PC is a bit old, so I wouldn't like to have those packages instaled. Is it possible to (at least) only install gnome-libs? Thanks to all =) -- Paladin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
