unremovable file after dpkg failure
this is a new and interesting problem i've never seen before.after a dpkg installation failure i'm left with a file i can't do a thing about, its presence blocks any dpkg usage and ldconfig too. any ideas how i can remove this file or alter its permissions?
root@crystaltree:~# ls -l /usr/lib/libgmime-2.0.so.2
p-w-r-Srwx 9781 2801277591 676399779 3409598200 2038-05-23 22:55 /usr/lib/libgmime-2.0.so.2
