Re: conflicting packages

Thanks for your help.
Actually I managed to solve the problem.  I had just to update miktex and
refresh the database a second time; I had probably done it in the wrong
order the first time around.  By the way there was not a log file because
the compiler crashed before producing it.
Thanks again
Massimo
