			== Delete corrupt package ==

			While trying to install qemu-kvm on my remote shell account, my shell crashed. It forced me to reboot the VPS remotely. When I logged in, and attempted anything in aptitude or apt-get it gave me a warning:

			$ sudo apt-get remove qemu-kvm
			E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.

			As soon as I ran 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' it would once again attempt to install the package, locking me out of the shell account. The only way I found to resolve the issue:

			$ sudo dpkg --force all --remove qemu-kvm

			Determine your version of debian:

			$ cat /etc/debian_version
			testing/unstable

			If I now reference http://www.debian.org/releases/ it says I'm using etch (testing) and sid (unstable) as of writing this. Now I will scroll down http://www.debian-multimedia.org/ and look for the /etc/apt/sources.list entry for my version of debian. I add the follow to /etc/apt/sources.list as I choose to use etch:

			deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org etch main

			Now we need to add the package maintainers key to our debian keyring:

			# apt-get install debian-keyring
			# gpg --keyserver wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net --recv-keys 1F41B907 \| apt-key add -
