Christian Schuerer, if you had installed the broken package before the fixed release, you will _still_ have problems upgrading. You need to remove it first. I posted above how to manually remove.
" I got it to remove in a very forcefull way. I'm not to keen on scripting or how dpkg works, so you might not listen to me BUT, if you want to remove mozilla-plugin-gnash (for now until it is fixed): You have to remove 1 line from 2 different files. Remove [ for p in iceape iceweasel mozilla firefox xulrunner; do update-alternatives --remove "$p-flashplugin" /usr/lib/gnash/libgnashplugin.so done ] from /var/lib/dpkg/info/mozilla-plugin-gnash.prerm & /var/lib/dpkg/info/mozilla-plugin-gnash.postinst then sudo apt-get remove mozilla-plugin-gnash and to be safe, manually run update-alternatives as both files wanted to do: sudo update-alternatives --remove iceape-flashplugin /usr/lib/gnash/libgnashplugin.so sudo update-alternatives --remove iceweasel-flashplugin /usr/lib/gnash/libgnashplugin.so sudo update-alternatives --remove mozilla-flashplugin /usr/lib/gnash/libgnashplugin.so sudo update-alternatives --remove firefox-flashplugin /usr/lib/gnash/libgnashplugin.so sudo update-alternatives --remove xulrunner-flashplugin /usr/lib/gnash/libgnashplugin.so " once you've done that, then upgrade and let me know if it went through smooth -ryan On 8/12/07, Christian Schuerer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Mario, it seems that the problem isn't fixed yet, at least for me.
