Cannot install lg-base; possible dependency issue with perlapi/libhtml-parser-perl?
Hi folks. I've been using Debian for a few weeks now;
starting to get a handle on installing things and
tracking down issues.
I'm trying to install the Linux Gazette packages, and
I'm running into issues somewhere around the Perl
packages.

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean
that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using
the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet
been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
Since you only requested a single operation it is
extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report
against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the
situation:
Sorry, but the following packages have unmet
dependencies:
lg-base: Depends: libwww-perl but it is not going to
be installed
Depends: libhtml-parser-perl but it is not
going to be installed
E: Sorry, broken packages
