Hi, I'm trying to install imp3 from the testing distribution using apt-get, but the install breaks because there's a conflict between the php4-pear and php4-pear-log packages.
If I isolate the php4-pear packages, I can install php4-pear correctly. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- root@itvgw02:/usr/share/horde # apt-get install php4-pear Reading Package Lists...

It seems safe to let php4-pear-log overwrite the file in both packages but I can't see how to do that with apt-get. Is php4-pear-log really required for imp3/horde2? Is there a way to install imp3 without php4-pear-log? Thanks, David -- David Shaw, itv|world [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
