Anyway, after manually fixing all the permissions I could with your file and some other references, I decided to reinstall... my system needed to be cleaned anyway. Except from some issues with acls, it didn't represent to much trouble. Here are the main steps in case anyone is afraid of doing it (as I was): - Backup /etc and any other files manually added (/usr/local, etc) - Save the output of 'dpkg --get-selections "*"' - Not necessary, but useful, backup /var/cache/apt/archives - Simply reinstall and restore backups (dpkg --set-selections < selectionsfile also) and run 'aptitude install' And, I FINALLY COULD START USING APTITUDE WITHOUT RUNNING INTO TROUBLE! :) -- Gabriel Parrondo GNU/Linux User #404138 GnuPG Public Key ID: BED7BF43 JID: gabrielp@xmpp.us "The only difference between theory and practice is that, in theory, there's no difference between theory and practice."
