I personally just download the offending *.deb file(s) manually and do, for example: dpkg -i --force-overwrite passwd_1%3a4.0.3-3_i386.deb I just last week did a woody->sarge upgrade and had to do this a couple of times. Nothing seems broken so far as a result. Gary -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

error upgrading woody to sid (passwd)
Hi! I have trouble upgrading from woody to sid: The error after #apt-get dist-upgrade is: Preparing to replace passwd 2902-12 (using .../passwd_1%3a4.0.3-3_i386.deb) ... Unpacking replacement passwd ... dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/passwd_1%3a4.0.3-3_i386.deb (--un pack): trying to overwrite `/usr/share/man/de/man1/chsh.1.gz', which is also in packag e manpages-de dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe) Ok. Finally it worked by removing manpages-de, but thats not very elegant. This bug seems to be reported at: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=162097&repeatmerged=yes Its from 09/23 and for me it sounds that they fixed it. Does anyone know a better solution for this? Shall I write a new bugreport about this (never done this before)? -- Sebastian Schinzel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
