I same for Yahoo Messenger, just replace the aim thing with the yahoo one.dpkg: error processing aim_1.5.286-2.i386.deb (--install):
cannot access archive: No such file or directory
Errors were encountered while processing:
aim_1.5.286-2.i386.deb
I eventually gave up on that and just went back to the Windows partition on my hard drive for a while to finish downloading something. I finally came back, but had given up on AIM and was trying to install AYTTM (Are You Talking To Me), which basically let my use AIM, MSN, etc. all in one program. Again, followed the instructions as it said, and again, failed to work.
What on Earth is going on? Why does it keep erroring? Is it a problem in settings somewhere or something? I'm logged in as root when I try it, so that can't be it.
