I'm trying to make a virtual package 'slapd' on my own APT archive. I add the following to the control file. I have packages for 2.0, 2.1 and 2.2 (all with almost identical control files).
----- s n i p ----- Package: slapd2.0 Conflicts: umich-ldapd, ldap-server, slapd Replaces: slapd Provides: ldap-server, slapd ----- s n i p ----- The problem is that there's a REAL 'slapd' package on the Debian GNU/Linux APT archive(s) which seem to override _my_ virtual package(s). I would like to have my packages to override the 'original' one (they have A LOT newer version). Does anyone have an idea if this is possible? I've made virtual packages before (the nagios package is one such), but I've never (that I can remember) had the problem with an existing package with the same name as the virtual package... -- Khaddafi Cocaine Honduras arrangements Ft.
