Hi,

I'm having problems installing tetex-texmf which might be corrupted (?).
I've tried updating the packages, running apt-get -f install and other
suggestions that I found in the archives, but
nothing seems to help.  Here's the message I get when trying to
install the binary:

Reading Package Lists...
Building Dependency Tree...
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  tetex-texmf

E: Sub-process /sw/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

I have recently upgraded Fink by trashing the previous version and
installing the new one from the disk image.   Is this at all relevant?
I'm really lost.  Would be grateful for any help.

thanks,
Katya
