dependancy not found (apt-get)
Hi, I am trying to use my apt preferences setup to install straw from unstable onto my stable system. Here is what I get : trillian:/etc/apt# apt-get install -t unstable straw python-gnome2 python2.2-gnome2 libnautilus2-2 Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done 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. The following information may help to resolve the situation: Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies: libnautilus2-2: Depends: libgnome-desktop-0 (= 2.0.3) but it is not installable E: Sorry, broken packages trillian:/etc/apt# apt-get install -t unstable straw python-gnome2 python2.2-gnome2 libnautilus2-2 libgnome-desktop-0 Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done Package libgnome-desktop-0 has no available version, but exists in the database. This typically means that the package was mentioned in a dependency and never uploaded, has been obsoleted or is not available with the contents of sources.list E: Package libgnome-desktop-0 has no installation candidate (1) What does this mean and (2) Is there hope for me?

It's interesting... I run unstable, and apt can't find libgnome-desktop-0, but its dependancies are listed at http://packages.debian.org/unstable/libs/libgnome-desktop-0.html and it doesn't seem to exist anywhere else... Maybe you'll be able to install straw later. -- Seneca [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
