add/remove problems
 

Hello
I am running ubuntu on my system. When i do updates or run add/remove i get a error messuage

E: clvm: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 3
E: redhat-cluster-suite: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
E: system-config-cluster: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured

I do not know how to fix it can some one help me please?

Can you post your /etc/apt/sources.list? Also, what version of Ubuntu are you using?

It sounds like maybe you haven't enabled all the appropriate repositories so it can't get the dependencies.

Try running 'apt-get update' and see if it gives you errors; if it does, it probably asks you to run some specific command which should fix dependency problems. I've encountered the error several times when using apt, and it's really annoying; first time I really had problems trying to figure out how to get around the problem, since then the 'fix' that apt asked me to do was insufficient.

Apt's man-page should shed some light, too.

this is my sources.list i installed Ubuntu 6.06 LTS I tryed

sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop xubuntu-desktop

to see if that fixed but it did not

When i run

apt-get update

I get

E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13 Permission denied )
E: Unable to lock the list directory

i have to look at the apt's man-page

you need to add "sudo" before "apt-get"

I changed to a Kubuntu kde desktop by typing

sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop

and i don't get that message just a broken link message now. But every thing still loads and works ok
