The gnome 2.0 lines are out of my sources.list!
Even forcing 'apt-get install xfree86-common' from
people.debian.org/~blade doesn't seem to do the trick;
there must be other dependency issues as to why
apt-get update && apt-get upgrade' wasn't sufficient
to pull in the new XFree86 once the
people.debian.org/~blade source had been added to my
list.
Any ideas?
'apt-get install gnome' doesn't work either as I get
the error message
gnome: Depends: gnome-core (= 21) but it is not
going to be installed
Depends: galeon or
galeon-snapshot but it is not
installable
Depends: gnome-games but it is not going to
be installed
E: Sorry, broken packages
Thanks.
