It's these "/usr/sbin/???: No such file or directory" errors that have been
plaguing my upgrade on my Thinkpad 365XD.  I swear I followed the upgrade
instructions for going from an 'old' 1.2 to 1.3.  Now, it would appear that I
have a bad ldso package  (I might not have been paying close enought attention
when I did that part of the upgrade, but also, Debian and Linux in general has
been relatively marginal on this hardware).  Now, when I try to install the ldso
package (ldso_1.8.10-2.deb), I get errors because "/usr/sbin/install-info: No
such file or directory" - although /usr/sbin/install-info is there...

Let me check... Doing a dpkg -s ldso says that I have "version: 1.8.10-2"!
So why would dpkg -i ldso_1.8.10-2.deb even try to install the package???

What can I do to save my system?

Thanks for any help,

Paul Rightley
