Meaning that I'm not installing it right now.
Please fix for release, or remove it from Karmic's repositories, or
remove the message that says "this is bad and will break all your stuff"
so that people don't feel like the world is ending when installing it.
Thank you.
I have assigned it to dpkg as it seems to be the cause of this message,
per the line that says (due to dpkg).
