This is the same problem we discussed a few days ago. #!'s are not working. Did you run native-install? What does "showtrans /servers/socket/1" return? > Also dpkg moans while processing libc6 from the hurd distribution, saying > that the architecture (i386) is different from the system (hurd-i386) Your dpkg version must be incredible old. Please update to the latest version (1.4.1.7 i think), using dpkg --force-architecture dpkg_1.4.1.7.deb > One more funny error: > sh-2.02# perl -v > sh: /usr/bin/perl: No such file or directory > > Why such behaviour ? I don't know. Maybe it is related to the #!/pipes problem. Which version of perl is it? What does "ls -l /usr/bin/perl" return? Thanks, Marcus -- `Rhubarb is no Egyptian god.'
