Help! what debian package provides 'elf-x11r6lib'?? For some reason ftp.debian.org doesn't have the unstable directory.. and dselect decided to uninstall tons of my programs.. :( .. I changed the unstable directory in ftp to hamm/hamm .. I still need that package though. -Paul -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

xlib6 used to provide it. It should have been fazed out a long time ago. I'd like to add, if you are installing packages out of unstable, which you must be, since you have this problem (due to the xlib6 in unstable) -- the debian-devel list is probably a better place to direct questions about dependencies, etc. Cheers, - Jim pgpGLTuGODUeL.pgp Description: PGP signature

I still need that package though. xlib6 used to provide it. It should have been fazed out a long time ago. The latest xlib6 removed the provides, any package that depends on it is broken. I filed a list of bugs when the latest xlib6 hit incoming, you might want to check and file bugs against the packages I missed (I only filed against packages on my system). You should be able to force dselect to leave them installed, a 'Q' when the conflict screen comes up (after making sure they're still selected as installed) should do it. -- Scott K.
