Done! I had set paths in my shell environment myself, and that is why update-alternatives were not seen by dpkg. I included /sw/sbin and it worked. No more dpkg-lock complaints. Now I've tex (including prosper, powerdot etc) installed. Many thanks Martin. It was indeed a great help!!! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
