Don't know if this is a bug in the removal script for this package or not but this is what I get: (both when used with -r and --purge)
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~] dpkg -r libstdc++2.9-dev (Reading database ... 42362 files and directories currently installed.) Removing libstdc++2.9-dev ... install-info: No dir file specified; try --help for more information. dpkg: error processing libstdc++2.9-dev (--remove): subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 1 Errors were encountered while processing: libstdc++2.9-dev I can rm the files manually but how would i tell the database that the package is removed ? thanks! getting tons of probs compiling c++ apps and hopin that reverting to a pure 2.7.2.3 config with libg++ and stuff will help fix. nate ----------------------------------------[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ]-- Linux System Administrator http://www.firetrail.com/ Firetrail Internet Services Limited http://www.aphroland.org/ Everett, WA 425-348-7336 http://www.linuxpowered.net/ Powered By: http://comedy.aphroland.org/ Debian 2.1 Linux 2.0.36 SMP http://yahoo.aphroland.org/ -----------------------------------------[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ]--
