You can use the --force-options to override the removal, however if the two packages contain files with the same name and locations (e.g. /usr sbin/ftpd), this won't help - you simply cannot install both packages at the same time and use them. Maybe extracting the deb to some other dir with dpkg will work, but probably not. best regards Andreas Janssen -- Andreas Janssen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> PGP-Key-ID: 0xDC801674 ICQ #17079270 Registered Linux User #267976 http://www.andreas-janssen.de/debian-tipps.html -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
