Re: a lot of broken packages in apt

I don't know any way to fix this, but I have the same issue here. If you don't need exim, just uninstalled it and everything will be fined. If you need exim... Then I don't know. I have uninstalled it, and am currently running libc6 2.3.2.ds1-20.0.0.1.pure64 If I want to install exim4, it will upgrade libc6, and base-file depends to libc6 < 2.3.2.ds1-20.0.0.1.pure64 which causes the trouble.

Well the package is broken, and one has to compile it from the sources to get it work - which I eventually did.

Re: amd64 into mainstream

It may well be that there is room for two systems: 1. Debian, as the "grand collector of package updates," and 2. Ubuntu, as the folks that actually create release candidates on some reasonably regular schedule. That's true, but it could also be the case of Stable/sarge vs sid. Anyway this would implie a compatibility between ubuntu packages and debian packages, and it already seems that some ubuntu packages can't be install on Sarge, even if I have not checked personaly the later, and may be spreading rumors founded by debian fundamentalist :-) Best Julien Tailleur -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

wesnoth in unstable
Can anyone use last wesnoth version? I can use it under debian sid (not amd64) withtout issue, but it fails to start under amd64 with the really usefull message: Battle for Wesnoth v0.9.0 Started on Mon Apr 18 19:36:16 2005 started game: 1449246887 Abandon It used to work before my last update, and the 32 bit version is still working. If it fails to work on someone computer which has a working chroot, can you try the 32 bit version?

Re: java plugin for firefox

There is no "plugin" directory in sun java 1.5.0, so I installed blackdown java, wondering wether I had just made the same mistake. It seems I had since the plugin is working perfectly...
