Package: dpkg Version: 1.10 Severity: normal with sources.list pointing at testing, try this:
apt-get install tkmail file /usr/bin/dotlock dpkg -S /usr/bin/dotlock apt-get install maildrop file /usr/bin/dotlock It is the packages' responsibility to set this right (tkmail should ship dotlock.tkmail instead), but nevertheless I think update-alternatives should check for and stop this before it happens (make maildrop installation fail). After all, that's what would happen if maildrop tried to ship /usr/bin/dotlock as a straight file. -- System Information Debian Release: woody Kernel Version: Linux kronstadt 2.4.19 #1 Thu Aug 22 08:52:25 PDT 2002 i586 unknown Versions of the packages dpkg depends on: ii dselect 1.10 a user tool to manage Debian packages ii libc6 2.2.5-11.1 GNU C Library: Shared libraries and Timezone -- Ian Zimmerman, Oakland, California, U.S.A.
