I am using debian sarge, and i use dselect to install softwares. However, when
i tried to install the mysql-server component and followed all of the
suggestions to solve dependence conflicts, (which added about 5 or 6 other
components). When it proceeded to the configure step, the screen rolled up with
many mistakes, and at the bottom saying "Unknown error 900", followed by a
segmentation error, then my filesystem(which is xfs) halted.
I rebooted and checked my filesystem carefully and found a nearly 2GB file
named "available" in /var/lib/dpkg/, I thought it was the prob and deleted it.
However, i still cannot use dselect(and of course any tools of dpkg-***) which
always returns a "segmentation fault" and halts. Any idea?
