This is not an APT problem, this is dpkg giving the error. From the dpkg source I can't easially deduce what this check is checking for.. It looks to me like dpkg may be having problems trying to configure, but I'm not sure why. Try adding --force-depends and --force-depends-version and running dpkg --configure -a. Also try adding some debug flags. Ask on debian-devel, perhaps someone has had this error from dpkg before? Maybe try removing the offending package? Make sure you have enough disk space, check that your status file is not corrupted in any way? Jason -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
