Hi Luvers,
how do I override suggested dependencies using apt-get which
conflicts
with already installed software that provides equivalent functionalities?
For example:
If I install phpmyadmin usign apt-get, it will also install
apache2, and
if I already have say nginx installed, it will remove it, and
replace it
with apache. But I want to keep nginx.
How do I get apt-get to install phpmyadmin while keeping nginx?
In general however, you can just add a - to the end of a package you don't want to install. e.g. root@astrotest:~# apt-get install phpmyadmin Reading package lists...
