Just had a little problem that required manual intervention on sigurd. I was running db-community, but it happened to be already running, so it stopped. It left a symlink behind, though, and it failed until I removed it. Here's the log, tomorrow I'll investigate the problem, now it's 4 am and I only have the energy to cut&paste. G'night. -------------------------- [cprimier@sigurd ~]$ /arch/db-community ==> Processing 1 new/updated arch-independent packages for 'community'... Checked out revision 7496.
