Hi - I have managed to spoil my Potato installation big time, I think. I have the following error with whatever dpkg command I give: dpkg: failed to open package info file `/var/lib/dpkg/status' for reading: No such file or directory Is there any way to regenerate these files from the current configuration? Any suggestions much appreciated! -- Erik van der Meulen <e.van.der.meulen@avondel.nl>
