It appears emacs 21 and dictionaries-common have a fight going on and dpkg
is caught in the middle. This is the second time I ran into their
squabble. Does anyone know what the back story is and if there's likely

I am having a problem with two packages, nvidia-glx-legacy and
nvidia-glx-new (and it's on an upgrade to Ubuntu Feisty -- I tried a new
driver). I tried to remove both of them so I could reinstall them.
Supposedly neither one is installed and I've tried using dpkg with remove
and purge to get rid
Hi,
I am trying to develop this game under Debian Woody 3.0r2 (very cutomized though)

Hello Faheem,
Thank you for your response. Unfortunately I'd already overwritten
the 'coreutils-packages' of sarge (shellutils and textutils) with
their newest versions. That means

I did

dpkg --force-overwrite -i textutils_2.1-1_i386.deb
Now the dist-upgrade is progressing.

Hi all,
I got a wired problem upgrading woody to sarge. I'm not able to
upgrade shellutils.
I had setup preferences and sources list for pinning with unstable.
This might be the reason of my problem.
Now I got only testing and stable/upgrade (security) in my sources
list and I moved preferenc

Why not just shut down or remove the one you aren't using?

I installed noffle but emacs' gnus still connects to leafnode. Why
aren't leafnode and noffle marked as conflicting packages?
OK, I suppose I will manually have to disconnect leafnode from the
NNTP port and connect noffle.

The debian package management system is neat but let's say you want to
read the docs and man page of a conflicting package. Then you must
drive the original package off the system to install the new package
