Hi all, Whilst trying to see if the Gnome 2.2. backport was conflicting with the XFree 4.3 backport that I was already using, I realised that my xlibs had been kept back and was still at v4.1.
So I removed xlibs (and the many dependants), removed the Gnome line from my sources.list, did an apt-get update, and apt-get install xlibs. And this is my error: brain:/home/antgel# apt-get install xlibs Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done 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: xlibs: Depends: libfontconfig1 (>= 2.1) but it is not installable Depends: libfreetype6 (>= 2.1.3-5) but it is not going to be installed E: Sorry, broken packages brain:/home/antgel# Here's my sources.list (note only XFree 4.3 isn't commented out, out of the unofficial stuff): brain:/home/antgel# cat /etc/apt/sources.list # XFree4.3 deb http://people.debian.org/~mmagallo/packages/xfree86/i386/ ./ # Gnome 2.2 #deb http://ftp.acc.umu.se/mirror/mirrors.evilgeniuses.org.uk/debian/backports/woody/ gnome2.2/ # realplayer #deb http://marillat.free.fr/ stable main # openoffice.org #deb http://ftp.freenet.de/pub/ftp.vpn-junkies.de/openoffice/ woody main contrib deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main #deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 r1 _Woody_ - Official i386 Binary-7 (20021218)]/ unstable contrib main non-US/contrib non-US/main #deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 r1 _Woody_ - Official i386 Binary-6 (20021218)]/ unstable contrib main non-US/contrib non-US/main #deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 r1 _Woody_ - Official i386 Binary-5 (20021218)]/ unstable contrib main non-US/contrib non-US/main #deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 r1 _Woody_ - Official i386 Binary-4 (20021218)]/ unstable contrib main non-US/contrib non-US/main #deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 r1 _Woody_ - Official i386 Binary-3 (20021218)]/ unstable contrib main non-US/contrib non-US/main #deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 r1 _Woody_ - Official i386 Binary-2 (20021218)]/ unstable contrib main non-US/contrib non-US/main #deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 r1 _Woody_ - Official i386 Binary-1 (20021218)]/ unstable contrib main non-US/contrib non-US/main deb ftp://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/ stable main contrib deb-src ftp://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/ stable main deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US stable/non-US main deb-src http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US stable/non-US main brain:/home/antgel# Can anyone give me a hand here?
