the reinstall worked! gaim is functioning normally. but i still get the dpkg
error message.
serious warning: files list file for package `gaim-data' missing,
assuming package has no files currently installed.
my research on the problem says that to get rid of the message one should
install the 'gaim.list' file, but doing 'ls -l gai*' in /var/lib/dpkg/info i
get:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 20 2006-08-24 19:25 gaim-data.conffiles
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 19390 2006-10-29 09:02 gaim-data.list
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 27018 2006-08-24 19:25 gaim-data.md5sums
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 939 2006-10-28 16:07 gaim.list
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1864 2006-08-24 22:17 gaim.md5sums
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 590 2006-08-24 22:16 gaim.postinst*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 275 2006-08-24 22:16 gaim.postrm*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 52 2006-08-24 22:16 gaim.shlibs
i.e., the file seems to be on the system.
thanks,
tom
