ixtyfor:~# apt-get install pingus-data 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. 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: Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies: pingus-data: Depends: pingus but it is not installable E: Sorry, broken packages Manually downloading pingus-data .. sixtyfor:/scratch/incoming/TAPE/Save_Alpha/Game/debian# dpkg -i pingus-data_0.5.0pre3-1_all.deb (Reading database ... 129254 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to replace pingus-data 0.5.0pre3-1 (using pingus-data_0.5.0pre3-1_all.deb) ... Unpacking replacement pingus-data ... dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of pingus-data: pingus-data depends on pingus; however: Package pingus is not installed. dpkg: error processing pingus-data (--install): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured Errors were encountered while processing: pingus-data I think this bug is not (only) package specific but rather a general bug because an all-deb (with probably an pingus.xxx.i386.deb in woody ?) entered woody, while the corresponding package (pingus.xxx.alpha.deb) did not. Or it is an bug in apt, which should state that this all deb is currently not instalable on this particular architecture since the (binary dependent) dependencies are not (yet) fullfilled in the selected distribution.
