Auf Anglisch? Something about "can't remove audiofile because esound depends on it" maybe? You can try removing that as well, but other things (gnome-libs, control-center, xmms, about a dozen others) depend on esound, so you just end up tumbling down the rabbit hole here. Isn't there a way to force-remove a package? I thought I'd seen people mention this, but 'fink --info' doesn't mention it and neither does the mapage. Seems like if you could forcibly remove the package, then drop in a replacement, nothing (hopefully) will break in the process. -- Chris Devers [EMAIL PROTECTED] Apache / mod_perl / http://homepage.mac.com/chdevers/resume/ "More war soon.
