Hell there,
I have had a huge system crash, and recoverd partionaly from it. But a

downloads.
Thanks

I do I force files to be overwritten in aptitude ?
Like apt-get --purge remove <package> && apt-get install <package>, but in
aptitude.
Re-installing in aptitude doesn't overwrite modified files. Is there an
option ?
How about:
aptitude purge <package> && aptitude install <package>
