OK. Thanks I did that. It generates this output:

For what it's worth
ll /etc/environment
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 2008-08-19 19:47 /etc/environment
I delete /etc/environment since it is an empty file anyway. After that
it work. It's now also possible to purge/ install it ok.
I have no idea, how I got that empty /etc/environment, since its
modificaton date does not match with the installation of anon-proxy.
*Florian, thanks a lot for your help!*
I'm not sure, if this behaviour is actually a bug.
/---
rm /etc/environment
touch /etc/environment
aptitude install anon-proxy
\---
reproduces the problem.
/---
rm /etc/environment
aptitude install anon-proxy
aptitude purge anon-proxy
\---
leaves /etc/environment on my system:
/---
10:38:05-root@e13-v21:~# ll /etc/environment
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1 2008-08-26 10:37 /etc/environment
\---
This one bit difference (space or newline?) makes the difference,
whether anon-proxy is installable or not.
Cheers,
Johannes
