Hi Yaroslav, I didn't manage to reproduce the problem. Do you have the 'git' package installed also on your system, or if not, did you before?: # dpkg -s git Can you please check the output of?: # update-alternatives --list git # dpkg-divert --list '*git*' Regards, Gerrit. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
