Can't stat : No such file or directory
i've even downloaded the file and put it by hand in
/var/lib/dpkg/methods/ftp/debian/unstable/binary-i386/x11/ but to no
avail. if i try to retrieve the file a second time dpkg-ftp won't even
try thinking it already has it. what do i do now other that going back
to 1.4.2. thanks.
