Hi Bryan, that's not a bug, the /usr/bin/pg_config from libpq-dev is moved aside by postgresql-common's preinst script via dpkg-divert: diversion by postgresql-common from: /usr/bin/pg_config diversion by postgresql-common to: /usr/bin/pg_config.libpq-dev libpq-dev, postgresql-common: /usr/bin/pg_config > This was not a problem for me before an attempted update a few days ago; Now I > have broken dependencies that I cannot fix because I cannot install the > current libpq-dev because of the file conflict. I don't know what changed. If the diversion didn't work for you, something is messed up. Does "apt-get install --reinstall postgresql-common" fix things? If there's still problems, please attach the terminal output of apt and dpkg so we can have a look. Christoph
