This is non-sense. /usr/bin/X11/xterm does not exist, the hook is only there to make sure that the old link is removed. update-alternatives should just ignore that operation and keep the alternatives-entry as-is. Instead, it sets it to auto, looks completely unreasonably for me. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux zombie 2.4.18 #4 Fre Aug 23 23:21:38 CEST 2002 i686 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Versions of packages dpkg depends on: ii dselect 1.10.4 a user tool to manage Debian packa hi libc6 2.2.5-14 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an -- no debconf information
