[snip] Maybe gparted had been installed as a requirement by another package, not by itself, then this package was somehow removed, and gparted was no more "needed". I expect (and see) this trait in "aptitude", but not in "apt-get", though. BTW, using "aptitude", instead of "apt-get" seems to be the new recommended way. -- Iñaki Silanes / Chemistry Faculty UPV-EHU Donostia http://www.sc.ehu.es/powgep99/dcytp/teoricos/staff/inaki/inaki.htm On Intelligent Design: http://www.venganza.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
