Sorry, I didn't make myself understood. In other words, is not recommendable remove a package from Debian without coordinate it. Considering that you removed cupp3 suddenly, the best way to fix it without disrupt other packages/users is adopt the same procedure as renaming a package (this procedure is also used to rename but it not just to rename). > Could you modify the dependencies of forensics-extra to use cupp package > instead of cupp3? [3]. Sure, I will do it soon. Regards, Eriberto
