Re: Gnome 2.0 rc1 -- experimental




yes, I tried that (apt-get libgnome2... ) but I got complaints that some stuff was mentioned but wasn't downloaded....


apt-get install libgnome2-0
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Package libgnome2-0 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 libgnome2-0 has no installation candidate

I ran apt-get update after putting the new 'deb' source in my source.list file and then ran apt-get upgrade ... just to keep things in check... then when I ran the command on top, I got that error... that always puzzle me (I'm used to RPM and URPMI ).

any thoughts?


What's "sid"?

i installed gnome2 on my ibook (1 month old) and it runs very, very well
(though i'm partial to wmaker). i think i just apt-get libgnome2-0 and let
apt do its magick...

it is very, very slick.
