What should it be telling > me? libreadlineg2 is "hiding" in the Incoming directory of our ftp server, where it should make its way out once our archive maintainer catches up after his vacation. The "g" suffix on many new library packages is an indication that they are linked with libc6 (glibc2) instead of libc5. We are working on migrating to libc6 for Debian 2.0, while also assuring backwards compatibility and hopefully providing both libc5 and libc6 development environments. - -- | You are never given a wish without also Scott K.

You need to have first installed a recent version of libreadline2, which will put itself in a libc5-compat directory and so not clash with libreadlineg2. Actually most programs that use libreadline2 now have libc6 versions that use libreadlineg2, but there are still a few left. > 2.

I know I should have made the postinst so it didn't die on finding that error; I'll release a patched version soon. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
