dependency mess

[Pollywog <pollywog@shadypond.com>]

I have run across a dependency problem and I wonder if I should just install
KDE from source.  When I tried to install the package I needed, that one
conflicted with one already installed, and I am afraid I will break my system
if I start removing stuff.


lilypad:/home/pollywog# dpkg -i kdelibs2g-dev_1.1-19990207-1_i386.deb 
(Reading database ... 49363 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace kdelibs2g-dev 4:1.1-19990207-1 (using
kdelibs2g-dev_1.1-19990207-1_i386.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement kdelibs2g-dev ...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of kdelibs2g-dev:
 kdelibs2g-dev depends on libjpegg-dev (>= 6a); however:
  Package libjpegg-dev is not configured yet.
dpkg: error processing kdelibs2g-dev (--install):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
