well, I updated my repository and again, after changing the version to 'etch,' it tells me to to do apt-get -f install. So I do and again it tells me that e2fsprogs needs to be disabled so I run 'apt-get clean' followed immediately by 'apt-get -f install' and it happily downloads more STUFF! (10 minutes worth of stuff @ 30kB/s) Guess what happens after the d/l is complete: it tells me about the problem with e2fsprogs again. Can you say whoops?
