Trying to install noip2 client on WD MyBook Live

Cubytus32 · 12-15-2013, 11:37 AM

Hello there,

I am trying to install the noip2 client on a WD MyBook Live that will ultimately be hosted in a place I don't have access to. So it needs to be 100% reliable and automatically open the required ports on the router to make it accessible from the Internet. WD MyBook Live runs a variety of Debian, and has a PowerPC CPU.

I started with noip2 client manual installation, as it doesn't seem to be present in every Debian's repositories, but encountered errors:

Code:

# apt-get upgrade

You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.

  apt-utils: Depends: libapt-pkg4.10
  libept1: Depends: libapt-pkg4.10
E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.

and

How do I tackle those?

Try doing an "apt-get update" (without the quotes). Now, try what you did again.
Also , are you root? If not, do a "sudo su -" and do the above.

I am root.

Doesn't work, in other words.
