BTW, I also tried manually downloading the package, and then doing "dpkg --force-all -i vim", and it worked. But I had to remove it since, if I keep vim then apt-get breaks due to the dependency problem, :(, so if some one was thinking about this possible work around, it doesn't work out well.... -- Javier -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
