Debian Users; Hi, I'm new to Debian, I've been using Unix for 18 years. As such, I have a package-management question which may very well be a FAQ.
I don't see any documentation (FAQ or otherwise) of resolving package-management issues, so this is my only forum. I am "Linux debian 2.2.17" For some reason, installation of "ntp 1:4.0.99g-2potato2" caused required removal of g++ and has screwed up my /var/lib/dpkg/status so that it thinks I need to install libc6, even though I have libc6, and I cannot use D/R/U to bypass the "Suggestions" screen of dselect. I'm sure I'm missing something. Is there a way to ask "dpkg" or "dselect" **why** it thinks I need to install libc6? Or how about **why** the help-defined key-binding don't allow me to Accept/decline "recommendations" ? Allan
