(maybe solved) Re: apt-get reports conflicts while installing j2sdk

Apparently, _H. S._, on 03/22/04 14:57,typed:

Hi,
I am running Sarge. I am trying to install Java and yesterday installed j2sdk1.3 and then realized I needed j2sdk1.4. Some problem with the glibc or gcc version. 

So I removed that:
#> apt-get --purge remove j2sdk1.3 j2re1.3

Then I installed j2sdk1.4 but go these errors:
~# apt-get install j2sdk1.4
Reading Package Lists... Done

The following extra packages will be installed:
  j2re1.4
Suggested packages:

So how do I remove whateve was left over from j2sdk1.3 remove operation?



I think solved:
~# dpkg --remove j2re1.3
~# apt-get install  j2re1.4

seemed to have worked.
Which leads to me the question is the deb package of j2re1.3 from Blackdown broken? Since it didn't remove itself with "apt-get --purge remove".
