Wow, I got it working now, but it was sort of a painful process. What it
was was that somehow in the rpm db there were duplicates (two different
versions of) a number of packages, all of which I think were installed from
Red Hat Update Network. I.e. there were two glibc's, two kdelib's, etc. So
I had to do:
rpm -qa | sort > out.txt
look at the out.txt file and look for duplicates and "rpm -e" them. After
killing all of the duplicates, apt-get now works fine.
Now I'm looking forward to getting this apt stuff going. =)
Thanks,
steven
