I decided to try to remove the old one. I got the following:
bash# dpkg --remove netstd
(Reading database ... 8631 files and directories currently installed.)
Removing netstd ...

Errors were encountered while processing:
netstd
I can't remove the old one, and I can't install the new one, so I'm
dead in the water.
Can anyone help???
Thanks,
Jim.
