Hi all,
I installed the davfs2 package (
http://maemo.org/packages/package_in....4.3-3-maemo5/
) using dpkg, in particular:
# dpkg --ignore-depends=neon -i davfs2_1.4.3-3-maemo4_armel.deb
Reason for ignore-depends is because there is no "neon" package. There is a "libneon" (
http://maemo.org/packages/view/libneon/
) and "libneon27" (
http://maemo.org/packages/package_in....29.3-2maemo1/
).
The latter is the one that I installed, and mounting davfs file systems works OK.
Now apt-get complains that package "neon" is missing and therefore wants to remove "davfs". This happens e.g. if I do apt-get autoremove or if I use FAM (because it always issues an "autoremove" before install).
If I do "apt-get -f install" apt-get tells me it wants to remove davfs2.
NOW, I want to tell dpkg somehow to stop bugging me and consider "neon" to be installed. Is there some way to do this?
I'm not expert in DEB (happy Slackware user
and searching around here and in google didn't turn up anything.
