Please help. I tried to upgrade my system, after a long period of stable operation. During the upgrade attempt, use apt-get dselect-upgrade, Zope failed to upgrade, due to pre remove script failure. Zope is currently installed at 2.3.3-1 level, trying to upgrade to 2.6.1-10. It is trying to run python-base, which apparently is no longer available, and not on my system. I did reinstall python1.5_1.5.2-27_i386.deb and python1.5-dev_1.5.2-27_i386.deb, from ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/p/python1.5. Additional problems are that startx no longer exists on my system, and I can't run X. I don't know if this is directly related, but dselect and apt-get fail during all attempts to upgrade due to zope and python script errors.
I am not a sophisticated user, and apparently have done myself damage. Can anyone offer some steps for me to try to restore my system? I will be happy to provide a copy of 'dpkg -l' or any logs to anyone willing to help. Thanks so much, Russ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
