problems with apt-get (corrupted lm-sensors)

[ciapecki]

Hi,

I just upgraded (partialy) to ETCH from Sarge.

but some dependencies did not meet.

when I try e.g.

Code: Alles auswählen

apt-get install nmap

i get following:

Code: Alles auswählen

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  libxft1: Depends: xfree86-common but it is not installable
  pm-dev: Depends: xfree86-common but it is not installable
  xfonts-100dpi-transcoded: Depends: xfree86-common but it is not
installable
  xfonts-75dpi: Depends: xfree86-common but it is not installable
  xfonts-75dpi-transcoded: Depends: xfree86-common but it is not
installable
  xfonts-base: Depends: xfree86-common but it is not installable
  xfonts-base-transcoded: Depends: xfree86-common but it is not
installable
  xfonts-scalable: Depends: xfree86-common but it is not installable
  xlibs-static-dev: Depends: xfree86-common but it is not installable
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or
specify a solution).

then I try:

apt-get -f install

I really don't understand what it means using .../lm-
sensors_1%3a2.10.1-3_i386.deb (I did not want to install it - I
already installed lm-sensors 1:2.10.1-3

can anybody suggest anything to try to move forward with this.

thanks

Have you upgraded it from a pure Sarge to a pure testing?
Is everything upgraded correctly?
What happens if you run aptitude dist-upgrade? Sometimes you have to run the dist-upgrade multiple times...
if there are still packages in queue install them until aptitude dist-upgrade finishes without doing something.

I upgraded from Sarge to testing, but I noticed my sources.list file had some unstable and stable mix, now I left only etch.
Upgrade was almost succesful since a lot of packages upgraded correctly, until lm-sensors (or another one that depens on it) and I don't understand why it bothers with lm-sensors1 when I have lm-sensors2
runing:

Code: Alles auswählen

aptitude dist-upgrade

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  xfonts-base-transcoded: Depends: xfree86-common but it is not installable
  libxft1: Depends: xfree86-common but it is not installable
  pm-dev: Depends: xfree86-common but it is not installable
Resolving dependencies...
The following actions will resolve these dependencies:

Remove the following packages:
libxft1
pm-dev
xfonts-base-transcoded
xlibs
xlibs-dev

Keep the following packages at their current version:
discover1-data [1.2005.01.08 (now)]
iproute [20041019-3 (now)]
setmixer [27DEC94-9 (now)]

Upgrade the following packages:
alsa-base [1.0.9b-2 (now) -> 1.0.13-5 (stable)]

Score is -1842

Accept this solution? [Y/n/q/?]

I give Y
