Victor still can't post on the list, so I'm forwarding this here. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Wed, 15 Jan 1997 09:20:35 -0500 From: root <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Dale Scheetz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: Ian Jackson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Dpkg Downgrade
Hi Dale, If your workload allows would you please post this to the list. I can read the list traffic but still cannot post to the list. Thanks, Victor How to I go back to and older version of dpkg? Specifically from version 1.4.0.6 to version 1.4.0.5. I tried all the dpkg install/force options with no luck. I don't want to dpkg --purge the file since there would be nothing there to use to install/bootstrap itself. The specific problem I'm having with 1.4.0.6 is that it won't read the Packages file no matter what I try. The ftp connection works fine until it gets to that point in the download process. Want to go back to 1.4.0.5 to see if the same thing happens there. 1.4.0.5 always worked OK for me before. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
