I downloaded hamm at University and our computer dude kindly wrote it onto a CD for me. The directory system was a bit of a mess, and the CD was vanilla iso9660 (no Rockridge extensions or anything, eight dot three filenames), but after installing the first package (I think it was dpgk-perl) dselect worked fine. Everything's working well now: I like the new version of the Gimp and managed to get minesweeper working under Wine which was the principle reason for the upgrade (Gimp and Wine, not minesweeper). Thanks, guys.
However, I had some rather scary looking error messages which I would like someone to explain to me. They all looked like ldconfig: warning: can't open /usr/lib/ <*> (no such file or directory where <*> = libuid.so.1 , libe2p.so.2 , libext2fs.so.2 , libss.so.2, libcon_ed.so is there a problem here, and if so what can I do about it? Also, how does dpkg decide to upgrade (or not) when it's "considering"?
