Few weeks ago, my corruption occured with sysvinit-2.69-1. I have been having this same package since December 8. For some unknown reason, few weeks ago my wtmp _stoped_ getting corrupted. And I have one dpkg request: An option that tells which packages were intalled since a certain date, i.g., % dpkg -older 2/28/97 . -- Ioannis Tambouras [EMAIL PROTECTED], West Palm Beach, Florida Signed pgp-key on key server.
