I searched packages.debian.org and the description is similar. GNU C library. Why are they different packages ? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Random System Crashes
Hello, System lock ups are most likely related to some hardware interfacing problem. Look at the drivers you have installed, and remove them from the kernel. Then start adding them while trying to reproduce the problem.

Re: Package list problem
Andrei : I ran that command on terminal.app and on the resulting packages onward and every one is not installed. It reverse depends on gnustep (virtual package), which reverse depends on gnustep-games and gnustep-devel, that don't rdepend on nothing. Mumia : I used aptitude instead of synaptic and the error message was that the gnustep-back-0.11 that terminal.app depends on is not available, and that is the reason why it can't be installed. Synaptic told me what I've written on the previous email. I ran those searches and no output resulted. The packages are not installed. Pardon my ignorance, but I usually upgrade packages without paying attention to the distribution they fit in. My system is currently a lenny/sid. How do I go about bringing it to a single distribution (the latest unstable is the preferred)? Daniel Santos -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Re: Package list problem
Yes. In my last message I don't know if it was clear but I meant that the package which was to be installed (terminal.app) is on the package list because I have some other packages that depend on it. Since the repository that had that package is no longer in my list, it remains there because some other package depends on it. Probably it is hiding the same package on one of the repositories configured. Is there some documentation on the package list format and how can I search it for the packages that keep the phantom package in the list ?

Package list problem
Hello, I am running dpkg version 1.14.4. I've had several repositories configured, and kept changing them for some time because I had internet access problems. Anyway, the package list shows a lot of uninstalled packages with no description information (don't know if dpkg-query -l behaves this way or if its garbage from older repositories) When I tried to apt-get a package I got the following output : oraculo:/home/dlsa# apt-get install terminal.app 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: The following packages have unmet dependencies: terminal.app: Depends: gnustep-back0.11 (= 0.11.0) but it is not installable Depends: gnustep-gpbs (= 0.11.0) but it is not going to be installed E: Broken packages Then I ran a dpkg -C to get a list of broken packages and it showed me nothing I usually use synaptic to do package mgmt, and the error it shows me when I try to install it, is that this package is from a repository no longer in the list, and that some package that is installed depends on dependencies of it. Is it possible to know which packages are blocking the installation of this one ? Is it possible to clean the package list from these packages that have no know location but are on the list because of dependencies ? (maybe by uninstalling the ones that depend on them) Many thanks Daniel Santos -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
