Hello: I was unable to get mozilla to run. It did not complain when I attempted to launch from an xterm, nor did it run. I finally decided to remove mozilla and its parts and reinstall it. That is where I ran into problems. During the reinstall, x crashed while downloading mozilla and mozilla-psm. I restarted x and then dselect in another xterm. dselect complained that the mozilla-psm file was corrupt. I tried to purge it so I could start over but it simply will not. I will paste some details below. Question, is there a way to force a package that is now selected for removal out of the system? I have gone so far as looking into dpkg (force items) and it still fails. Right now, it looks like it is trying to *create* symlinks (like it was being installed) even though apt is trying to remove it. Any help would be much appreciated. pts/1$ > apt-get dist-upgrade Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done Calculating Upgrade...
