problem with libpam0 and libpam-util in stable

[Chris R. Martin]

I'm probably missing something obvious here, but I can't seem to get
libpam0 and libpam-util to install, because aparently they depend on each
other.

Do I need to use dpkg --force ??

Thanks,
Chris

Try specifying both on the same dpkg command line:

dpkg -i libpam0_whatever.deb libpam-util_whatever.deb

Does this message strike anyone as significantly less helpful than the
former mail a message with the subject unsubscribe to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] message?  I'll grant you that
people screwed that up too, but this seems to be asking for people to
get confused.

No, just install them on the same line

dpkg -i libpam0_*deb libpam-util_*deb

(I'm pretty sure that worked for me, way back when.)
