Unfortunately, I forgot to keep the package that I installed (the fake one) so I cannot run 'dpkg --info' on it, but below is the output on 'dpkg -s' and 'dpkg -S' I don't see the problem, and I was able to install a newer kcrontabs package with no problem. The older kcrontabs package was looking for an older kdelibs version, kdelibs0 I believe it was. /var/mail/block#dpkg -s kdelibs2g Package: kdelibs2g Status: install ok installed Priority: extra Section: contrib/x11 Installed-Size: 8 Maintainer: Martin Bialasinski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Version: 5:5.99 Description: Fake kdelibs package. . /var/mail/block#dpkg -S kdelibs2g kdelibs2g: /usr/doc/kdelibs2g/copyright kdelibs2g-dev: /usr/doc/kdelibs2g-dev kdelibs2g-dev: /usr/doc/kdelibs2g-dev/changelog.gz kdelibs2g-dev: /usr/doc/kdelibs2g-dev/copyright kdelibs2g: /usr/doc/kdelibs2g kdelibs2g: /usr/doc/kdelibs2g/README.Debian kdelibs2g: /usr/doc/kdelibs2g/changelog.gz kdelibs2g-dev: /usr/doc/kdelibs2g-dev/README.Debian -- Andrew
