Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/bootcd_3.11_all.deb E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) This is a serious bug as it makes installation fail. Possible solutions are to have the two packages conflict, to rename the common file in one of the two packages, or to remove the file from one package and have this package depend on the other package. File diversions or a Replace relation are another possibility. This bug will be assigned to both packages. -Ralf. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
