-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hi all again,
using a directory as a test dir for installing some applications... I coppied /var/lib/dpkg into it in order to avoid dpkg complains... and then I install applications using the --root option of dpkg But this silly trick is not really right, dpkg complains about missing files of the pre* post* installation scripts How to setup a clean /var/lib/dpkg, etc.. environment to be used with dpkg --root? regards, Ulisses - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Computers are useless.
