Package: fglrx-driver
Version: 8.28.8-0.1
i was using debs created by ati installer originally but i removed those,
as they weren't working.
i get this error even if i try dpkg --info so i think it's the deb.
thx for any help.
Phelius.

Agreed. I was suspecting a broken package (or a broken dpkg, but that's
quite less likely) all along.
