Is there any way to install these packages?
When packages are mutually dependent, it means that one should not be installed without the other. apt-get should handle this situation automatically. If for some reason you are using dpkg directly, simply give it both .deb files in a single invocation, e.g.: dpkg -i libc6_2.3.1-9_hppa.deb libdb1-compat_2.1.3-7_hppa.deb -- / | [|] Sean Neakums | Questions are a burden to others; [|] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | answers a prison for oneself. \ | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
