Hi I tried to install a driver for a brother printer and now get told that packages are in an inconsistent state searching through /var/lib/dpkg/status reveals the following Package: mfcj615wlpr Status: install reinstreq half-installed Maintainer: Brother Industries, Ltd. Architecture: i386 Version: 1.1.1-1 Config-Version: 1.1.1-1 Description: Brother lpr Inkjet Printer Definitions Copyright: 2003 Brother Industries, Ltd. All Rights Reserved Brother inkjet printer Driver I just wondered how i fix this, I can't un-install as it needs to be reinstalled to do that, however I can't reinstall due to the state its in (buggy package partly) Any ideas on fixing this so i can start over with trying to install drivers for a brother mfcj615w properly and hopefully get it working. thanks Paul -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/listfaq
