You are right, sorry. I thought ghostscript-7 had a "Replaces: ghostscript6" field, but it doesn't. The other way round it works, that is if you have ghostscript-7 installed and say "fink install ghostscript6", then it removes ghostscript and installs ghostscript6. I would see this as a bug in the ghostscript-7.02-2.info file. What I would do is % sudo dpkg --remove ghostscript6 This will not succeed, but it will tell you if there are packages (like pdftex or tetex-base) that directly depend on ghostscript6 and not via ghostscript. Remove any such package, because it will probably make problems afterwards, or hope that it will not. % sudo dpkg --remove --force-depends ghostscript6 This will succeed. % fink install ghostscript This will install ghostscript-7.02 -- Martin _______________________________________________ Fink-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users
