I want to install popfile, but it needs a newer version of debconf than is installed initially with woody. apt-get fails by saying the installed version is the latest.
# apt-get install debconf Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done Sorry, debconf is already the newest version. 0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded. I tried an apt-get update and I also tried downloading the deb package and installing using dpkg, but get: # dpkg -i debconf_1.4.30_all.deb dpkg: regarding debconf_1.4.30_all.deb containing debconf: debconf conflicts with dialog (<< 0.9b-20020814-1) dialog (version 0.9a-20020309a-1) is installed. dpkg: error processing debconf_1.4.30_all.deb (--install): conflicting packages - not installing debconf Errors were encountered while processing: debconf_1.4.30_all.deb Hints are gratefully appreciated.
