You should be able to 'dpkg --purge slrn'. The other possibility is that the file really is randomly left over (it might not be a dpkg-managed conffile, and the package's scripts could be sloppy), in which case 'rm' should be able to address your problem sufficiently cleanly. -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
