Probably because you already removed the package with apt-get, so dpkg didn't have an installed package to purge. apt-get install bugzilla # so you can then purge it apt-get --purge remove bugzilla # purge it apt-get install bugzilla # install it or, alternatively, you could probably just run dpkg-reconfigure bugzilla -- ....................paul It is important to realize that any lock can be picked with a big enough hammer. -- Sun System & Network Admin manual -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
