Dear list, <br><br>Can someone please tell me how can I disable and prevent this /etc/alternative mess?<br>it is cause so many things to not work, many seem to be disabled and links to non existent files.<br>Please, I'm not interested in fixing the alternatives stuff, I would like to know if it can be removed completely so installed softwares work as they should.<br>
<br>I run Hardy and decided to use a 21st century version of aMSN and not the old rubbish we have to put up with, I removed amsn and amsn-data, I built the new aMSN, and run make deb, install with dpkg, all good, until I try run and it complain about wish (I create symlink so amsn now good) , this is just one of many things I find not work, so decide alternatives has to go because I have better things to do then recreate a lot of symlinks.<br>
<br>ciao Eddie<br><br>
