Aha!
and when trying to remove:
dpkg: error processing gtkwifi (--purge):
Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should
reinstall it before attempting a removal.
Errors were encountered while processing:
gtkwifi
Take its advice. Find the old package and reinstall that (without
removing), then purge it, then install the new.
There was no old package. The .deb was downloaded (Sourceforge?) from a
site to be used with Debian Sid, which I am running. Something happened
when I tried to install it; can't remember the original error message.
So that is why I'm stuck. I can't reinstall the gtkwifi.deb that I have
in my home directory in order to complete its removal.
Any other suggestions?
Nick
