can anyone help me with this? I did an apt-get update, apt-get upgrade a few days ago on my testing system and ran into the following problem with libxft-dev. I tried removing the kde and qt -dev stuff since I don't need it anymore, but apt-get won't allow it.
Help! I can't install anything anymore. Chris k6:~# apt-get -u upgrade You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these. The following packages have unmet dependencies: libxft-dev: Depends: libxft2 (= 2.1.2-5) but 2.1.2-6 is installed E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f. k6:~# apt-get -f install The following extra packages will be installed: libxft-dev The following packages will be upgraded: libxft-dev 1 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 28 not upgraded. 115 not fully installed or removed.
