svga package not installing fully
hi,
i'm the one who just hosed his system, and the latest problem is getting a
/etc/vga/libvga.config file to install.
for some reason, the whole /etc/vga directory was gone after the hosing,
so I do as I did for all packages that were partially stuffed:
dpkg --force-depends -r svgalibg1
apt-get -f install svgalibg1
now this worked for everything except that the result from dpkg's install
is:
(Reading database ... 36997 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking svgalibg1 (from svgalibg1_1.3.0.19980916-1.deb) ...
Setting up svgalibg1 (1.3.0.19980916-1) ...
ldconfig: warning: can't open /usr/lib/libvga.so.1 (No such file or
directory), skipping
ldconfig: warning: can't open /usr/lib/libvgagl.so.1 (No such file or
directory), skipping
now this is weird as these libraries do (now) exist, but the /etc/vga
directory has only one file in it: libvga.et6000 ... there should be a
whole pile of these things!
hope someone can help,
Paul
