Hm. Try running "depmod -a" and see if it goes away. Tell me if that's
the case. It may go away when I replace the kernel.

Fixed in next upload. Sorry.

Go in /lib and symbolic link libncurses.so.3.0 to
libtermcap.so.2 and then run "ldconfig" and see if that helps.
I think the ncurses package should probably provide this link.

It's in project/experimental . I think you may have to upgrade libc4
before installing the a.out dpkg before performing the upgrade. Ugh!

New fsck finds stuff the old one missed. This can be disconcerting.

It could be made to work by using virtual packages for the kernel.

I guess it should clean when removing itself.

Pixar Animation Studios: Reality is not our business.
Pixar's "Toy Story" $184,849,036 domestic, $117.5M overseas and counting.
That makes it number 21 in box office figures of all films ever released.
