That's a bit unfortunate.

It's expected that they are the same since every dpkg invocation overwrites status-old, and apt usually invokes dpkg at least twice when installing/upgrading non-essential packages. Older versions of the dpkg status file might still be in /var/backups. Sven -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
