My /etc/apt/sources.list say?
deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian potato main contrib non-free
deb http://kde.rap.ucar.edu potato main crypto optional
deb http://red-carpet.ximian.com/debian stable main
I am sure the reason I am having trouble is because of the kde and the
ximian stuff, but I like to play with the new stuff, and it is supposed
to work with potato. Dselect didn't complain, it would just keep
reselecting libguile9 and guile 1.4 after I pushed <return> to do the
install. After trying many different things I finally gave up and
decided to try and get my scanner working. I used dselect to get xsane
and with it it also downloaded gnucash and everything started working
again. I guess I must have messed someting up with dselect, and by
downloading another package some how it strightend it out.
Thanks for the help.
