I'msure that all the results reported in this bug before now were with aptitude, and I'm sure that this is not reproducible for me by installing insserv in an etch chroot and dist-upgrading to lenny. Please provide a minimal test case that demonstrates this problem with apt, because installing insserv alone is not that test case. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
