My dpkg is apparently broken. I suspect that a file or three is either
missing, can't be found for some reason, or is lying in some foul
gutter, corrupted by too close an association with a certain lower class
OS. Either I must recreate/locate the missing file(s), or re-install
dpkg.
Problems:
1. I don't know what files should where. dpkg -I can't help, it's
borked :-/. Is there a config file somewhere?
2. How do you install dpkg if dpkg is broken? Since I have yet to
compile any packages, doing so for a critical app is not high on my list
of druthers. Find a .tar.gz pkg?
Help with solution 1 will be especially appreciated if it will make
solution 2 moot. Help with problem 2 will be accepted in the hope that
it will prove un-needed ;-)
Actually, were Merlin or Glenda to show up with a magic wand, I would
greet either with great enthusiasm.
tnx

Coincidence? I think not.
