Running Sid. Some time ago I started getting this message from sudo aptitude update :
Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... 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: The following packages have unmet dependencies: aptitude: Depends: libapt-pkg-libc6.3-6-3.11 but it is not installable E: Broken packages In the meantime I have upgraded Synaptic, which Synaptic told me required Aptitude to be removed. I dunno why. But it removed it, and now I can't re-install it because of the missing dependacy. This is my sources list. Am I missing something ?? deb ftp://gulus.usherbrooke.ca/debian/ sid main non-free contrib deb ftp://gulus.usherbrooke.ca/debian-multimedia/ sid main Searching the mailing list I saw someone with a similar problem a few months back but that was after he downloaded and installed a version of Aptitude that wasn't for Sid Help anyone?
