Public bug reported: Binary package hint: notify-osd
I just upgraded a mythbuntu install from Jaunty to Karmic. Synaptic and apt-get report that I need to run apt-get -f install to fix broken dependencies in mythbuntu-desktop. Doing so results in the following: ~$ sudo apt-get -f install Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Correcting dependencies...
