The following error occurred during my attempted upgrade, via aptitude, to
Edgy Eft from Dapper Drake.

I've tried deleting the file `/usr/lib/libarts_audiofile.so' (so it _can't_ be
overwritten) to solve this problem. Does anyone have any further ideas?
Thanks, Bob
P.S. Should I just download the official Edgy CD and use it for a re-install?
