A while ago I installed the xfstt package and it wouldn't install properly.
There has since been an update to this package and I figured the update would
clear up my problem. No such luck.
Dpkg reports problems with this package and suggests that I should reinstall.
Reinstalling just gives me the below errors. I've though about removing xfstt
with the force remove-reinstreq option, but I'm hesitant to do that. Could
someone suggest what is the accepted way of dealing with a situation like
this?
For the curious, below is the error messages I get:
