I've pulled the flash drive, and ran e2fsck on it, correcting the
errors that it found. I also emptied out a number of corrupt .list
files, as suggested earlier.
This is the error I get now:
# apt-get --reinstall install coreutils
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done

I'm not too worried about losing anything. It's an embedded device
which runs off a flash drive, and its only purpose is to act as a file
server for a mounted USB drive. I've checked the drive and it's fine,
but its entirely possible the flash drive has been corrupted.

Check it (and possibly also the filesystem)
In case of dubt, you could try

I fixed this by uninstalling the sendmail package, but leaving

I really enjoy "aptitude" for package management. It's interactive, and

What does "apt-get -u dist-upgrade" say? I usually use dist-upgrade
instead of upgrade.

hi,
go into /var/lib/dpkg/status with a text editor, then search for "Package:
j2re" and change that string to "Package: j2re1.4"
as you can see, libatik-java looks for "j2re1.4" not just "j2re".
this should do the trick.
