Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
synaptic: Depends: libc6 (>= 2.3.2.ds1-4) but 2.3.2-7 is to be installed
Depends: libgcc1 (>= 1:3.3.2-1) but 1:3.3.2-0pre5 is to be installed
Depends: libstdc++5 (>= 1:3.3.2-1) but 1:3.3.2-0pre5 is to be installed
Depends: libxml2 (>= 2.6.2) but 2.5.11-2 is to be installed
Depends: zlib1g (>= 1:1.2.1) but 1:1.1.4-15 is to be installed
E: Broken packages
so, is synaptic not installable? using Xandros btw, with the following /etc/apt/sources.list:
- Code: Select all
deb http://xnv2.xandros.com/2.0/pkg xandros2.0-xn main contrib non-free
deb ftp://ftp.de.debian.org/debian-non-US/ sarge/non-US main
deb ftp://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ sarge main
#If you like to add some multimedia-stuff (mplayer):
#deb http://marillat.free.fr/ testing main
#for k3b:
deb http://www.planet-moll.de/debian/ sarge main
#BTW: Xandros alos have a "unsupported" repository - which seems to be a sarge snapshop for a hudge bunch of files:
deb http://xnv2.xandros.com/2.0/pkg unsupported2.0-xn main contrib non-free
also, the idea of pinning is new to me, but i now have a file at /etc/apt/preferences with this in it:
- Code: Select all
Package: libatk1.0-0
Pin: version 1.4.1*
Pin-Priority: 1000
Package: *
Pin: release a=xandros2.0-xn
Pin-Priority: 777
Package: *
Pin: release a=testing
Pin-Priority: 650
the reason for this is to avoid overwriting xandros packages with non xandros packages, and also to ensure a specific version of atk which allegedly is the only version that synaptic will work with, although of course this is moot if i can't install synaptic.
what are your thoughts? don't go looking into it or anything, i need to google for myself to learn properly, but just wanted your thoughts, folks.
