Mark has privately informed me that this is still a problem:
Well I finally received my Ubuntu ver.6.06.1 LTS disk
from the "shipit" site. I installed it on a formatted
clean drive. (Gateway P-4 1.4 Ghz, 256 mb ram, 20 gig
hdd and a nVidia 64 mb graphics card. After a couple
of "installer" crashes, it finally installed. I went
to "update" some files that "Synaptic Package Manager"
said I needed to update. I am connected via cable
modem. It would download but NOT install the programs.
In "Terminal" it would read: "dpkg: parse error, in
file /var/lib/dpkg/available near line 7137 package
libebook 1. 2-5 'depends' field, invalid name 'libdat
! server. 2-7': character '!' not allowed- only
letters, digits and -+,_ allowed E:
sub-process/usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)".
It also tells me that I have "6 broken programs". When
I find them via "broken" filter, I try to update
(reinstall) them I receive the above message. I would
send a bug report via my Ubuntu computer but it will
not let me: "There was an error submitting the bug
report: Failed to execute child
process"/home/mark/bugs" (permission denied)" I can
not download and INSTALL anything. I will get this
message: "The application "file roller" has quit
unexpectedly". I really would like to give this OS a
try but it just keeps frustrating me. Thank you again, Mark
