Strange you didn't find anything in the archives, it's been discussed. base-config installs a stable (potato) sources.list. The libopenldap error is the first symptom of trying to install potato packages over a woody base system. Until woody is actually released, when it will become 'stable', you must Change 'stable' in your sources.list to 'woody' apt-get update apt-get dist-upgrade Ideally this should be done after base-config asks about your apt config and before you run tasksel or dselect. Otherwise you will get many errors like the one you reported. -- *------v--------- Installing Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 --------v------* | <http://www.debian.org/releases/woody/installmanual> | | debian-imac (potato): <http://debian-imac.sourceforge.net> | | Chris Tillman [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | May the Source be with you | *----------------------------------------------------------------* -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
