Just do a "dpkg -i --force-depends package-name" to install a particular package, ignoring the dependencies. Once you are done, run "dpkg --pending --configure", then "apt-get check" to make sure all of your dependencies are met. If not, run "apt-get -f install" to fix them. For future reference, why are you installing GNOME by hand? Is it not easier to just do an "apt-get install task-gnome-desktop <and other task packages>"? -- Stephen Pitts [EMAIL PROTECTED] webmaster - http://www.mschess.org
