First /etc/hostname is filled in. When I
attempt to reinstall I get the same type of error and the process
aborts. When I try to remove or purge the application I get the same
result. An of course, Aptitude won't finish the upgrade installation
because of this error. I get essentially the same result with dpkg. How
can I get out of this mess. Help!
