Hi, I am attempting an update of NSCD from 2.3.6-7 to 2.3.6-13 on an ETCH box. Aptitude reports the following:
Selecting previously deselected package nscd. (Reading database ... 97436 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to replace nscd 2.3.6-7 (using .../nscd_2.3.6-13_i386.deb) ...
