I am running woody but since I am running unstable would it be a problem to
now go to stable and then use pinning?
Would going to sarge be a fix or would it just cause different problems?
At this point if I try to install any package I get the following error.
This installation run will require temporarily removing the essential
package e2fsprogs due to a Conflicts/Pre-Depends loop. This is often bad,
but if you really want to do it, activate the APT::Force-LoopBreak option.
-bash: E:: command not found
E: Internal Error, Could not early remove e2fsprogs
~# E: Internal Error, Could not early remove e2fsprogs
