Hello, the most recent etch upgrade broke the Opera web browser (I think because of new X libs). Googled for a fix and found one, downloaded the newest debs (v9.20) from opera.org. Unfortunately at first the .deb wouldn't install due to an unsatisfied dependency on libqt3c102-mt, which doesn't seem to be in etch. I thought, fuck it, Opera didn't need that package yesterday so it won't need it today and forced the installation of opera using dpkg's -f option. All went fine and Opera works. But. Then I wanted to install stuff using aptitude, and upon hitting 'g', aptitude dutifully informed me that opera was broken and insisted on its removal. Is there a possibility to flag a package to apt as "it works, so leave it alone and stop bitching"? --D.
