Hello, 

I'm currently running Debian Unstable...  I'd like to report a bug
concerning a package but I'm a bit confused as to which package to file
it under. 

First, I don't think apt-get automatically logs its activities...  I can
find no mention of that in the man page.  Correct me if I am wrong
though.  I'd like the logs so I can put up the exact error messages I
got. 

I attempted to do an apt-get dist-upgrade and everything worked fine
until it attempted to: 

- install libsnmpkit2 (version 0.9-4).  Apt quit with an error saying
that it was trying to overwrite a .so installed by libsnmpkit1 
- So I tried to remove libsnmpkit1 and received another error, which was
pconf-detect(0.5-4) depended on libsnmpkit1 
-I tried to remove pconf-detect and got another error.  Couldn't remove
pconf-detect because it depended on libprinterconf0 (0.5-4) which
depended on libsnmpkit2 which wasn't installed yet 

I tried using apt-get -f install.  No dice. 

This appears to be the dependency sequence: 

pconf-detect<----libsnmpkit1 
    <----libprinterconf0<----libsnmpkit2 XXXXXX libsnmpkit1 

<----depends XXXX conflict 

Finally I used dpkg --remove pconf-detect a and removed everything down
the line.  I installed libsnmpkit2 and then installed back up. 
Everything seemed to work fine after that and apt didn't have a
problem... 

Any comments as to how to file this would be appreciated.  I'm thinking
under libsnmpkit2 

Any comments as to how to improve my questions (w/ the exception of
including logs - the next time I'll make sure) would be grealty
appreciated 

Thanks, 
Allen
