What’s the error message? You might be able to force-remove that one package (dpkg -r —force-all octave3.2-info) and ignore dependencies and then continue on. Can’t guarantee it’ll work, but it sounds like it won’t make the system any unusable than it is now... -Mark _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
