This may tell you why it is held back: Start aptitude. Search for gnome-common. Press enter to display package description and dependencies. Scroll to bottom to view available versions. Highlight held-back version and press enter and scroll through list to find dependencies that are not being met. Repeatedly press "q" to close displayed information and exit aptitude. -- Jerome
