Re: apt-get error
Dear Gavin,
really as Giacomo I don't understand what did you have done with your
system!!!
lira:~$ apt-cache show sitebar
Package: sitebar

Installed-Size: 2084
Maintainer: S. Zachariah Sprackett <zacs@debian.org>

Description: A web based bookmark manager written in PHP
SiteBar allows you to access and manage your private, shared or public
bookmarks from any computer and browser connected to the Internet. Create
personal, family, team, company or enterprise-wide bookmarks with flexible
access rules, permissions and customizable design.
Maybe you have some problems with this package only. If you are running sid
maybe there's some problem with consistency of the packages, I don't know.
Follow the instructions from Giacomo, or maybe try something like:
dpkg-reconfigure sitebar
or simple
apt-get remove sitebar.
Regards,
Leo
