Is this RC: "postrm remove" assumes Depended-on packages are configured and fails (was: Bug#403641: tetex-base: postrm fails if just unpackaged.)

2006-12-18 Thread Frank Küster
that many more packages suffer from this problem. And actually each command used in any "postrm remove" can become dependent on "configuredness" by later uploads of the depended-on package, so this is a general problem for all types of packages. Regards, Frank -- Dr. Frank Küst

How to handle filename conflict "aleph" (Packages aleph, tetex-bin, texlive-bin)?

2006-12-12 Thread Frank Küster
