I tried to reproduce it, as well. Well, I installed the locales-package just a few hours ago. I wiped away this package as well as dict-de-en (using "dpkg --purge"). Then I gave dict-de-en another shot. It's behaviour was as you described. The message appeared and so on. In other words, I must have punched RETURN to many times while installing a bunch of packages, hence overlooked the big, flashing warning. :-( I did another mistake and did not wipe out all package and configuration files - I just uninstalled dict-de-en instead of using "dpkg --purge". (Installing the package again - with existing configuration - does not produce a message.) Looks like it's all my fault. > It depends on this question, whether I can close the bug report now > or have to modify postinst... You can close it, I reckon. Thanks for you patients and sorry for any inconvenience. Cheers gERD, as usual the problem is in front of the screen. :-) -- +---------------------------+----------------------------------------- + |irc:truss -+- pgp: FAD9CD39| this is not america | | http://www.lena.sub.org | | +---------------------------+----------------------------------------- + -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
