Well, it appears it isn't possible to configure aptitude to ignore dependency errors. I ended up editing /var/lib/dpkg/status, adjusting the 'Depends' line to keep aptitude quiet. In the future, I can add the dependencies back to the 'Depends' line should I desire. -Jeff -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
