My system is up-to-date with unstable.
dselect shows me the following obsolete packages, but won't let
me remove them because they're required. What do I do?
- All packages
-
--- Obsolete and local packages present on system ---
----- Obsolete/local packages in section base -----
------- Obsolete/local Required packages in section base -------
*** base Req base 1.1.0-14 <none>
*__ base Req image 1.3.64-0 <none>
*__ base Req kernel-image 1.3.100-0 <none>
The dselect "Remove" option gives these errors:
running dpkg --pending --remove ...
dpkg: error processing image (--remove):
This is an essential package - it should not be removed.
dpkg: error processing kernel-image-1.3.100 (--remove):
This is an essential package - it should not be removed.
Errors were encountered while processing:
image
kernel-image-1.3.100
I've installed a kernel-image that I made with kernel-package, but
dselect doesn't seem to have noticed this at all. I'm
posting a separate message about this.
