Hi Scott,

please try next time to give correct information, so bugs can be
properly handled. This is neither a d-i bug nor is the justification
correct… And some text from you describing what you did around the
error message would not hurt either.


For the issue itself: It is selfgrown. The gksu package included in
Debian doesn't have this problem, so it comes from a thirdparty or
something so we don't have any influence. I am hence closing.


Technical it is also wrong to report it against apt as the message comes
from dpkg, but they can't do anything about it either. It is a problem
you have to solve yourself as it depends a bit on your usage pattern.
I presume in your case it is probably okay to just do:
dpkg --clear-avail
But read the manual to be sure and if unsure contact our support
channels like debian-user@lists.debian.org (which is also available in
other languages if you prefer).


Best regards

David Kalnischkies
