Hrm, which file system/kernel is this? I am getting
I: Extracting /var/cache/apt/archives/dash_0.5.5.1-3_hurd-i386.deb...
tar: ./bin/sh: Kann keinen symbolischen Link auf „„dash““ anlegen: Die
Datei existiert bereits
tar: ./usr/share/man/man1/sh.1.gz: Kann keinen symbolischen Link auf
„„dash.1.gz““ anlegen: Die Datei existiert bereits
tar: Beende mit Fehlerstatus aufgrund vorheriger Fehler
