xtide-data doesn't strictly depend on xtide, but the init.d script "appears" to assume that it is installed since it fails to find xtide's /usr/sbin/xttpd file. This is strange because /etc/init.d/xttpd contains: -- DAEMON=/usr/sbin/xttpd test -f $DAEMON || exit 0 -- Can you check that your copy of /etc/init.d/xttpd has this? I'm not seeing why this is failing... Thanks, Peter -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
