Yet another design issue of usrmerge... I guess running the usrmerge script again should fix the system. -- Aurelien Jarno GPG: 4096R/1DDD8C9B aurel...@aurel32.net http://www.aurel32.net

This command actually runs "dpkg-deb -x" which, unlike "dpkg -i", will silently overwrite symlinks to directories on the filesystem with directories contained in the package. This is very bad if /lib is a symlink to /usr/lib (the "usrmerge" layout). Cheers, Sven

It looked like that did the trick. But then update-initramfs failed. /lib/modules was EMPTY! The same story for 2 machines. So, for me it looks like the scripts in the control file do some magic which make it bad right now.
