Re: upgrade preload fails
Hi I have experienced such difficulties and solved them by editing /var/lib/dpkg/status by hand. It is easy to see how it should look like. But copy the file before changing it and only remove this single package with dpkg afterwards to see if you have succeeded. You have been warned! /Gudjon Þann Fimmtudagur 20. apríl 2006 12:44 skrifaði Niclas Wahlgren: What to do about this: debian-black:/home/nw# apt-get upgrade Reading package lists...
