I'm getting a slew of these errors running apt-get upgrade on my Woody system right now. The problem appears to be a missing file, /var/lib/debconf/config.88153. ...Ok, I'm learning bits and pieces. This file is created during the update process, right, 'coz on a retry, I'm getting config.114981 as the missing file. Ideas? TIA Sample apt-get output: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Need to get 0B/48.4MB of archives. After unpacking 5464kB will be used. Do you want to continue?
