Hi, ..on remastering a wee knoppix derivative, the disk whined about read errors down the /usr/XFree86 tree, so I moved my tree to another disk, and figured apt-get --reinstall or some such should fix it for me.
..the "some such" is the problem; how do I get "apt-get --re-install" to overwrite my bad files??? Or, tell the apt-get | dpkg database about bad files off a bad disk? ..yeah, I know it's trivial, but I can't find what's hidden under my damn nose without a clue whack. ;-) -- ..med vennlig hilsen = with Kind Regards from Arnt... ;-) ...with a number of polar bear hunters in his ancestry...
