Have you tried installing the libnss3-1d package as suggested?

install the libnss3-1d package but error display


Package dependencies cannot be resolved


The following packages have unmet dependencies:

libnss3-1d: Depends: libnss3 (= 3.13.1.with.ckbi.1.88-1ubuntu6) but 3.15.3.1-0ubuntu0.12.04.1 is to be installed

This might help-

http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise-updates/libnss3-1d

Installing that unmet dependency (libnss3-1d) like jdkaye is asking you about is the way to go.

If it helps that pkg is in Synaptic Package Manager if your having trouble installin it.
Here it is on my system-

thank Ztcoracat but problem libnss3 install

install the libnss3 but error in display on the screen

use command:
root@dabia-OptiPlex-745:~# apt-get install libnss3-1d_3.15.4-0ubuntu0.12.04.1_i386.deb
display error:
E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?




libnss3 open the software center but error
Dependency is not satisfiable: libnss3 (=3.15.4-0ubuntu0.12.04.1)




Synaptic Package Manager show the libnss3 same you link

apt-get install -f

If that doesnt work, try using-

apt-get update
apt-get clean
apt-get autoclean
apt-get autoremove

then run 'apt-get install -f' again.

Oh, yeah, because its *buntu you'll need to put 'sudo' before every command. Or use one of the workaround tricks.

zeeshanayub 02-16-2014 05:18 AM

not install of the use apt-get install -f and sudo apt-get install -f command

how to hide files and folders in ubuntu 12.04

cascade9 02-16-2014 05:23 AM

No, not 'sudo apt-get install -f install_flash_player_11_linux.i386', just 'sudo apt-get install -f'.

If you have broken packages, it stuffs apt/aptitude so you need to fix it.
