hey there all,
i installed debian via knoppix 3.4 and tried to uninstall a few things with 'apt-get remove' to reduce the clutter. there was an error with removing frozen-bubble and now i cannot remove it. this is the error it throws:
Code:
Unpacking replacement frozen-bubble-data ...
mv: cannot stat `/usr/games/frozen-bubble.wav': No such file or directory
dpkg: warning - old post-removal script returned error exit status 1
dpkg - trying script from the new package instead ...
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/frozen-bubble-data_1.0.0-5_all.deb (--unpack):
there is no script in the new version of the package - giving up
preinst called with unknown argument `abort-upgrade'
dpkg: error while cleaning up:
subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
/var/cache/apt/archives/xlibmesa-gl_4.3.0.dfsg.1-4_i386.deb
/var/cache/apt/archives/frozen-bubble-data_1.0.0-5_all.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
in addition, since i did a 'apt-get dist-upgrade' i now get another error, relating to the fact that i am using the radeon driver from ATi for my 9800 i believe. here is its error:
Code:
Preparing to replace xlibmesa-gl 4.3.0.dfsg.1-1 (using .../xlibmesa-gl_4.3.0.dfsg.1-4_i386.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement xlibmesa-gl ...
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/xlibmesa-gl_4.3.0.dfsg.1-4_i386.deb (--unpack):
trying to overwrite `/usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.1.2', which is also in package fglrx
dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)
any ideas? do i need to allow there to be 2 versions of libGL.so.1.2 somehow or something?
any help at all would certainly be appreciated.
