Apt or dselect > should have told you this. No, the problem is not solved, because this packages ar named "perl" an *NOT* "perl5". If I try to install package "sysutils_1.3.6.1.deb" I get Dependency-Problem-Message, because on my system is no package named "perl5" installed only named "perl" (Version: 5.004.04-7.0.1). I think there is a failure in the Dependency-Definiton of the package "sysutils_1.3.6.1.deb" - the dependency have to be "perl (>= ???)" and not "perl5" ?! Ciao Gabriele
