Updating Dependencies


Hi Folks,

Wish to update a dependency. It is libatk1.0-6

I am trying to install a program, called Nvu, or at least upgrade the one I already have. Plus a few others.

Error meessage is:

error = dependency is not satisfiable: linatk1.0-6

message originates from gDebi package installer.
I have tried several ways to do this, but no success.

What is the best way?

thanks for your help

If you are running Ubuntu, you should be able to install it with:
Code:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nvu
Apt will take care of dependencies automatically. Make sure to add extra repositories as described here: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_E...a_repositories

Hi,

I did the sudo apt-get update, it worked well, so I am assuming that it will update the libraries that are already installed.
Thanks for the help, much appreciated.
