Only dpkg ever installs or removes anything.

The 'available' file seems to be the same as the Packages file, deb822
format describing packages:
Package: foo
Priority: optional

I had some filesystem corruption. The last thing I did before the
machine hard locked was to install lshw. lshw is what hard locked the
system. Let's save the filesystem journaling discussion for another day
and focus on the matter at hand.
Anyway, at least one dpkg file entry was damaged and t

This error is because of something that happened before it, that usually
generates some output.
Hi,
After dist-upgrade I am left with the package scilab-sivp which
refuses to be removed and also precludes me from installing anything
else. It seems that scilab-sivp depends on sivp package, but since
sivp is not installed dpkg fails. I can't either install sivp or
uninstall scilab-sivp. Is the

You should just run the command "apt-get --fix-broken install" without
any package names. Also make shure you have done apt-get update
recently. It is almost never worth re-installing just because of a small
problem :)

Hi again. Sorry to pester about this. apt-get does not work with testing
(Woody) for me anymore. Nor does dpkg. The problem is with
dpkg-preconfigure, I think. If I try an apt-get dist-upgrade, it exits
with this message:

What on earth is going on here? I tried all the force options. I
unpack libc6_2.1.2-6 and dont see any tmp.ci/shlibs file in it. And there
is no tmp.ci/ or shlibs in /var/lib/dpkg. Any ideas? This is really
screwing up my sistem's functionality! :(.
