hi there,
I'm not sure if I'm in the correct forum here, but since apt-get is an application, I'm sure it's definetely worth trying here.
I haven't run apt-get for a while now and just today I hopped on it and ran
$ apt-get update
things went just fine
then I tried
$ apt-get upgrade
it checks and sees which packages I could upgrade, it asks me if I wanted to download 17 packaged that are upgradeable
I went ahead and said [Y]
it started to download them all and once It started to install those packages, I keep getting this same error and the apt-get upgrade process aborts. Can anyone help me and tell me what I'm supposed to do here to the point where I can use apt-get again to upgrade my packages? I would hate to have to go through downloading them all invidivually and update them that way...
Here's the error I'm getting:
Code:
...
sane-backends sane-backends-devel slocate squid subversion subversion-devel
sysstat tcpdump utempter xmms-crossfade xvidcore xvidcore-static zebra
The following packages have been kept back

I already tried to move libxvidcore.so to another folder and run it all over again (I even went ahead and did updatedb &) and yet I still keep getting the same error. Please advise!
