Is "--force" the right thing to do, or is there an alternative? OTOH, even if this particular problem can be worked around, it’s probably still correct to force the removal. After all, the package will be gone afterwards, and any possible remaining pieces in the package registry will be wrong. (I guess we will be rid of these problems once we have a directory where every package just dumps it’s config to. :-)) Greetings, Joachim -- Joachim "nomeata" Breitner Debian Developer nomeata@debian.org | ICQ# 74513189 | GPG-Keyid: 4743206C JID: nomeata@joachim-breitner.de | http://people.debian.org/~nomeata
