Hello, I'm fairly new to Debian, and I'm currently attempting to install the Debian distribution on my Mac Centris 650. And, yes, I do realize this is very unstable.
Nonetheless, my question concerns an error that I'm receiving when using dselect and dkpg. I've managed to install most of the packages I need without problem using dselect, and I do have a working system. It's just that on a few packages ('at' for instance), I get errors returned from dpkg. Here's an excerpt: --------------------- % dpkg --install /Debian/stable/m68k-binary/admin/at_3.1.8-2.1.deb (Reading database... Unpacking at (from .../admin/at_3.1.8-2.1.deb) ... dpkg: error processing /Debian/stable/m68k-binary/admin/at_3.1.8-2.1.deb (--install): error setting ownership of symlink 'usr/man/man1/batch.1.gz': No such file or directory Errors were encounterd while processing: /Debian/stable/m68k-binary/admin/at_3.1.8-2.1.deb --------------------- I'm stumped as to what I can do, if this is even important. However, it does appear that 'at' was not installed due to this error So, I examined the package using dpkg --extract ..., and I did see the batch.1.gz man page. My question: What should I do to get this package to install? Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks, Pete ---------------------------------------------- Pete Willemsen Department of Comp. Sci.
