Hi
My saga continues. Having updated to the 10.3 tree, I am now running update-all.
One of the problems I am getting is the following:
The following package will be installed or updated:
gdbm3
dpkg -i /sw/fink/dists/stable/main/binary-darwin-powerpc/libs/gdbm3_1.8.3-1_darwin-powerpc.deb
dpkg: considering removing gdbm in favour of gdbm3 ...
dpkg: no, cannot remove gdbm (--auto-deconfigure will help):
xemacs depends on gdbm
gdbm is to be removed.
dpkg: regarding .../gdbm3_1.8.3-1_darwin-powerpc.deb containing gdbm3:
gdbm3 conflicts with gdbm
gdbm (version 1.8.0-7) is installed.
dpkg: error processing /sw/fink/dists/stable/main/binary-darwin-powerpc/libs/gdbm3_1.8.3-1_darwin-powerpc.deb (--install):

Errors were encountered while processing:

### execution of dpkg failed, exit code 1
Failed: can't install package gdbm3-1.8.3-1
I saw another thread in which a different dependency using gdbm occurred. It recommended updating the unstable tree. I would try this for xemacs, but I also have a problem with xfree86-base:
dpkg: regarding .../xfree86_4.3.99.16-2_darwin-powerpc.deb containing xfree86:
xfree86-base conflicts with x11
xfree86 provides x11 and is to be installed.

What have I done here? Why am I getting all these conflicts?
Thanks.
