Re: Cannot install, upgrade, remove, etc.
Apparently the problem is somewhat bigger than that...
I just typed ls -l in /var/lib/dpkg/info
Here are the first lines :

Now I must say that I'm a little bit confused... How can that be ? This is
the origin of the problem but what is IT ?
Can that be that the files got corrupted or something like that ? Can I do
something to solve this ? Strange though, I'm using ReiserFS, are these
kind of things supposed to be avoided ? Oh, and if I try to replace for
instance xfree86-common.list my PC reboots immediatly!
Anyway, can u plz help me?
Thanks in advance!
