Please help me. i really need a package manager

should you not be running

Code:

gksudo xnetpkg

instead of

Code:

gksu xnetpkg

or even

Code:

sudo xnetpkg

ya I'm getting the same error

no solution here yet... i'll check around the net some more....

really like zenwalk, be a pity to have to switch

Apart from that Zen has been my fave distro as well

time for some serious googling
