What did you mean by "go to the main/base and later to the main/lib"? If you meant subdirectories, there was none in /var/cache/apt/archives. Anyway, I did what you said a few times, but even though bluefish was upgraded and is working (well, it only crashed when I called weblint)... dpkg still complains about: dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of libstdc++2.10-dev: libstdc++2.10-dev depends on g++ (>= 2.91.58); however: Package g++ is not configured yet. dpkg: error processing libstdc++2.10-dev (--install): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured Errors were encountered while processing: gcc_1%3a2.95.2-7_i386.deb g++ g77 gobjc libstdc++2.10-dev (?) Maybe upgrading to potato from the state it is now could be a good idea (?)
