APT does not do what? You aren't making much sense to me. Assuming both are unpacked, a simple dpkg --configure -a will configure both. Or a simple dpkg --configure wordnet wordnet-base. Neither is a long command line. And I believe depend loops are seldom longer than a couple packages. > These are bugs in wordnet that results in a screwball error message.. I don't see any bug reports against wordnet. What kind of bugs are you talking about? -- %%% Antti-Juhani Kaijanaho % [EMAIL PROTECTED] % http://www.iki.fi/gaia/ %%% "" (John Cage)
