Unfortunately, not any more. I should have typescripted it but I didn't. I was upgrading via dselect. Everything went fine through when dpkg unpacked the new dpkg. Then it segfaulted. I tried to run install from dselect again and it unpacked sysvinit and tried to update a conf file but then segfaulted. I tried to run a dselect update and it segfaulted. It's unreproducible now on this machine. I will try on a PPC machine I haven't updated in awhile. -- -- Grant Bowman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
