hi

I am trying to upgrade a woody box to sarge; 'aptitude' has 
decided to delete gnome-terminal;

but the prerm script of gnome-terminal contains this snippet

vvvvvvvvvvvv
if [ "$1" = remove ]; then
    update-alternatives --remove x-terminal-emulator /usr/bin/gnome-terminal.wrapper \
    --slave /usr/share/man/man1/x-terminal-emulator.1.gz \
    x-terminal-emulator.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/gnome-terminal.1.gz
fi
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

unfortunately (in dpkg 1.10.23 ) you cannot use 
 --remove and     --slave together
(and this is reasonable: '--remove' removes all the slaves, too)

so the prerm of gnome-terminal fails, and then the whole upgrade
of my box stops

a.

Hello,

As this bug is woody-specific, it is not relevant anymore, and I close
