Try something like:-

aptitude full-upgrade --show-deps --simulate

That should show why apache's getting installed.

Cut and paste is fine... but looking at this list:

I do not see the word apache anywhere!  So none of those packages that
it is trying to update seem to me to "be" apache.  and I suspect all of
them are in fact currently installed on your system, so what makes you
say that this is an "uninstalled package" asking for updates?

Which of these 12 packages do you think are "apache", or which do you
think are currently uninstalled on your machine, and why?

It was already discussed here, you can look at the archive of the list for 
details.
Last time I checked, I found Sylpheed better to use (I reported usability 
issues I had with Claw, but upstream doesn't seems to think it's a real 
problem). Sylpheed have also multi-threading (not freezing the GUI), and easy 
gmail configuration. Finally, the 2 programs are good, there is just no "killer 
feature", or no big benefit (CPU, RAM ...) that encourage us to switch. In this 
case, it's better to keep the one already in place (less work to do).

Julien Lavergne

[Lubuntu-desktop] VDPAU problem when watching videos

2011-05-09 Thread Lee Gold
Hi,

Using Lubuntu 10.10. When i try to play a video, usually .flv file in
VLC I get only audio and a blacked-out screen. In Gnome MPlayer I get
this error message: Failed to open VDPAU backend libvdpau_nvidia

I googled it but so far I have not found a simple fix. It seems to be a
common problem. Would anyone know a fix?

Thanks,

Lee G.

If it really is just as "heavy" in use and others have suggested the same in
the past, why not?

[Lubuntu-desktop] Proposal to use Claws Mail as default Email Client instead of Slypheed

2011-05-09 Thread WiZ
Claws Mail (http://www.claws-mail.org/ formerly Sylpheed-Claws) started as  
the bleeding-edge

version of Sylpheed, in order to act as a testbed for new features for
Sylpheed. Claws Mail then evolved into the stable extended version of
Sylpheed, and is now an entity in its own right, mainly due to
different goals and the fact that syncing both codebases doesn't happen
anymore.

Claws Mail has many extra features compared to Sylpheed and is more
powerful, yet is just as fast, lightweight and stable.

Justification:

Similar resource usage as Slypheed
Extendable with a number of 1st and 3rd party plugins available now
(Slypheed is also begining to develop support for plugins but Claws has
