Hi Chad,

you posted this on an unrelated bug report.

Please file a new bug and answer these questions there:
* how did you try to remove glx-diversions

Bug#867188: glx-diversions cannot install or remove

[Chad Chenault]

Package: glx-diversions
Version: 0.5.1
Followup-For: Bug #867188

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

I install nvidia-driver and glx-diversions would never install. I had installed 
a geforce gt240 graphics card. I gave up on getting it to work and uninstalled 
the 
nvidia driver but glx-diversions will not uninstall. I am removing the gt240 
graphics card and will try an AMD card.
