Ah good, thanks for the clearing up what Frank was implying. So if package a package such as x-window-system depends on another package, say xdm, and after installation you remove xdm. Then what happens if dist-upgrade wants to install a newer version of x-window-system that depends on xdm which is not installed? Will xdm not be installed? I understand that apt-get will say that it's going to do so. -- Bill Moseley [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
