apt-get problems (lm-sensors)
Hi,
I just upgraded (partialy) to ETCH from Sarge.
but some dependencies did not meet.
when I try e.g.
apt-get install nmap
i get following:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libxft1: Depends: xfree86-common but it is not installable
pm-dev: Depends: xfree86-common but it is not installable
xfonts-100dpi-transcoded: Depends: xfree86-common but it is not
installable
xfonts-75dpi: Depends: xfree86-common but it is not installable
xfonts-75dpi-transcoded: Depends: xfree86-common but it is not
installable
xfonts-base: Depends: xfree86-common but it is not installable
xfonts-base-transcoded: Depends: xfree86-common but it is not
installable
xfonts-scalable: Depends: xfree86-common but it is not installable
xlibs-static-dev: Depends: xfree86-common but it is not installable
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or
specify a solution).
then I try:
apt-get -f install

transcoded

xlibs-static-dev
The following packages will be REMOVED:
libxft1 pm-dev xfonts-base-transcoded xlibs xlibs-dev
The following NEW packages will be installed:
libfontenc-dev libxfont-dev x11proto-fonts-dev
The following packages will be upgraded:
xfonts-100dpi-transcoded xfonts-75dpi xfonts-75dpi-transcoded xfonts-

Need to get 0B/24.6MB of archives.
After unpacking 8937kB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]?
pressing Y
i get at the end:

I really don't understand what it means using .../lm-
sensors_1%3a2.10.1-3_i386.deb (I did not want to install it - I
already installed lm-sensors 1:2.10.1-3
can anybody suggest anything to try to move forward with this.
thanks
