In regards to my last email, I'm trying to reinstall the packages with the
files that have zero length, but I'm getting an error when trying to install
them. Here's the output:
[~] root# apt-get --reinstall install gzip
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 reinstalled, 0 to remove and
1 not upgraded. Need to get 0B/69.8kB of archives. After unpacking 0B
will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n] y
dpkg: error processing
/sw/var/cache/apt/archives/gzip_1.2.4a-6_darwin-powerpc.deb (--unpack):
failed to open package info file `/sw/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/control' for
reading: No such file or directory Errors were encountered while
processing:
/sw/var/cache/apt/archives/gzip_1.2.4a-6_darwin-powerpc.deb
E: Sub-process /sw/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
The error is correct there is no file of that name. There isn't even a
directory called tmp.ci. Is there supposed to be?
[/sw/bin:voodoo] ramos% ls -l /sw/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci
ls: /sw/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci: No such file or directory
