How to solve dependency errors


I'm trying to install openssh from debian on my damn small linux box, but I get lots of dependency errors.

How do I fix this?

Try running:

Code:
sudo apt-get -f install
That should force dependency installs.

How about POSTING those errors as in what errors are they ?
