apt-get help



this is a pretty dumb question, but its driving me
crazy...

I'm trying to install software with apt-get and i'm
getting errors for packages I didn't try to install.
Not the dependancies of the package i want,
but a totally unrelated package...

ie:

$ apt-get install lynx
Reading Page lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
You might want to run `apt-get -f install` to correct these:
Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
	exim: Depends: libpcre1 but it is not going to be installed
	eximon: Depends: xlib6g (>= 3.3-5) but it is not going to be
installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install`  with no packages (or
specify a solution)

how can i get rid of this?

Thanks.
ted.
