RE: Unable to delete file
Try running "lsattr /usr/share/doc/tk8.2/copyright"
and see if the file has the immutable bit set. If it
does, "chattr -i" will remove it.

Subject: Unable to delete file
I'm trying to upgrade to the unstable release and have hit a major snag.
Doing an 'apt-get dist-upgrade' fails with the following message:
Unable to update link /usr/share/doc/tk8.2/copyright :
Operation not permitted
I've tried to delete/chmod/chown it as root to no avail; I still get the
'Operation not permitted'.
It's a freakin' copyright file!
How is that possible?
I thought running fsck would help, but it didn't.
Any ideas? I'm completely stuck now and I've never seen anything like
this before.
