package system broken by aptitude removing cupsys -- correction
I did an experiment that makes a liar out of me: I installed
lenny and BEFORE DOING ANYTHING ELSE I removed cupsys. Bafflingly,
it worked fine.
So I reviewed what I had done the last time, and, yes, I had installed
a few other packages before attempting to remove cupsys. They were:
emacs, cvs, ssh-server, and, very interestingly, python-2.5.
I think if you install lenny from netinst, then install python-2.5 and
*then* attempt to remove cupsys, the problem will be reproduced.
So maybe it's a problem with the python-2.5 package, after all.
