unable to update files
hi, whenever I do an ugrade or something with apt, it keeps telling me that these are held back, i.e. not upgraded:
bittorrent-gui contact-lookup-applet libedata-book1.2-2 libpt-plugins-alsa libpt-plugins-v4l2 xfce4-mixer how can I upgrade them or if they are newest version, how do I tell my ubuntu? thanks, paddy |
Maybe there are some broken dependencies. Try:
apt-get -f install If that doesn't help try to remove those packages via dpkg --remove and reinstall them. flesym |
thanks, forcing helped w/ some and removing w/ the others.

Oh, that is good to know, but to avoid misconceptions: 'apt-get -f install' is no "forcing" at all, but stands for '--fix-broken' and is used to solve problems with broken dependencies. See 'man apt-get' for further details.
Bye -flesym |
