Hi,
I have Debian 5.0.3 amd64. It is empty, just open ssh server is running on it.
Whenever I try to install virtualmin using the install.sh script, I get asked about the hostname, then it downloads and installs packages then it dies here: INFO - /usr/bin/apt-get --config-file apt.conf.noninteractive -y --force-yes install virtualmin-base ...in progress, please wait... -E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) /usr/bin/apt-get --config-file apt.conf.noninteractive -y --force-yes install virtualmin-base failed. Error (if any): 0

Basically it says that the package webmin-virtual-server-theme is already installed. When I run: dpkg --list webmin-virtual-server-theme I get: Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Inst/Cfg-files/Unpacked/Failed-cfg/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend |/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name Version Description +++-=================================-=================================-================================================================================== in webmin-virtual-server-theme (no description available)
When I try to remove it: dpkg -P webmin-virtual-server-theme dpkg - warning: ignoring request to remove webmin-virtual-server-theme which isn't installed.
So now I am stuck. How do I remove webmin-virtual-server-theme?
Please advise.
