This evening when trying to upgrade this box I ran into a dependency problem.
Apt-get dselect-upgrade cannot upgrade fileutils, shellutils or textutils because to do so it must first install the new package coreutils. coreutils conflicts with stat which is provided by the old fileutils. coreutils provides stat. The error message says that the dependency loop may be avoided by activating the APT::Force-LoopBreak option The message also comes with a dire warning that bad things can happen if you try this. Does anyone on the list know if it is safe to try this in this case? Ken -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
