Trouble installing cups, cups-driver-gutenprint, and ssl-cert
 
Hello,

I've been researching this issue for a while now with no success.

Output from 'aptitude install cups':

  cups cups-driver-gutenprint{a} ssl-cert{a}

Hi, Chris,

After a quick Google search, that "unterminated 's' command" shows up in several places and associated with installation attempts of several different packages. I think my first suggestion is that you make sure you're up to date with the current Debian package installers.

Good luck!

post your sources.list, the only reason to have this problem is either mixing releases or a messed up sources.list
