Thanks Fedearne I finally got rid of the problem but 'install -f' did not work for me I had to do a 'sudo dpkg --force-remove-reinstreq -P courier-authdaemon'.
Now I only have to get it back again after I have completed the upgrade. Having been using debian and lately Ubuntu for about 10 years this is probably the messiest state I have had for a server upgrade ever but it is nice to see that the openness and community is there to support you (as always) ;). -- apt-get broken after upgrade to edgy eft (courier-authdaemon package) https://launchpad.net/bugs/64615 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
