debianutils / coreutils

[mi <michael.wordehoff@gmx.de>]

Hello,

I tried to upgrade debianutils from 1.16   to   1.16.2woody1
and retreived the following error:

>>
(Reading database ... 111696 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace debianutils 1.16 (using 
.../debianutils_1.16.2woody1_i386.deb) ...

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
Ack!  Something bad happened while installing packages.  Trying to

It's this package:

Next i tried to fetch coreutils source, but retreived:
>>
 r: apt-get source coreutils
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
E: Unable to find a source package for coreutils
<<

In sources.list i have these pointers:
# stable (Woody):
deb-src ftp://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ woody contrib main non-free
deb-src http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US stable/non-US main 
contrib non-free

dpkg -L shows no /bin/readlink file included in debianutils.
Why or what trying to overwrite then ?


Somebody can help me ?
