Package: git-core Version: 1:1.6.3.3-2 I fought this problem for a while where "git add" etc would complain about "no version information available" in libsdn.so.11... Finally I thought I would remove --purge and reinstall git-core. This didn't work, but I thought I should try it with its dependencies. Simply installing (upgrading) libidn11 did the trick. I assume this has to do with some sort of dependency conflict in one of the packages. Unfortunately, I didn't think to check which version of libidn11 I had installed before updating it... If you have any more questions about my config and/or packages, just let me know.

But if mankind is diverse and individuated, then how can anyone propose equality as an ideal? Every year, scholars hold Conferences on Equality and call for greater equality, and no one challenges the basic tenet. But what justification can equality find in the nature of man? If each individual is unique, how else can he be made 'equal' to others than by destroying most of what is human in him and reducing human society to the mindless uniformity of the ant heap?" --Murray N.
