Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/sslh_1.6i-1_amd64.deb E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) cow-shell unlink .ilist: No such file or directory This is a serious bug as it makes installation fail, and violate section 7.6.1 of the policy. Possible solutions are to have the two packages conflict, to rename the common file in one of the two packages, or to remove the file from one package and have this package depend on the other package. File diversions or a Replace relation are another possibility. Here is a list of files that are known to be shared by both packages (according to the Contents file for sid/amd64, which may be slightly out of sync): etc/default/sslh etc/init.d/sslh This bug is assigned to both packages. If you, the maintainers of the two packages in question, have agreed on which of the packages will resolve the problem please reassign the bug to that package. -Ralf.
