No, I mean I used aptitude from a visual interface and there search for the installed packages. When I find one, I hit Shift + L to mark it for reinstall. If I mark too many packages, it happen that that aptitude can't to reinstall them all together. When I tried to reinstall all installed packages from a file that contains the names of installed packages, it happen the same. Aptitude can't to reinstall all installed packages all together. So I decided to use aptitude from a visual interface for this task. I did this job within 1 hour or so. :) -- Regards, Paul Csanyi http://www.freewebs.com/csanyi-pal/index.htm -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
