Ubuntu :: Packages Update Errors - Broken Dependencies

Mar 12, 2011

I have a computer with 128 ko of RAM (a very old one). I installed yesterday ubuntu 8 because ubuntu 9 requires 512 ko of RAM and was very slow. Now, I have problems to update packages and to install every thing. I changed the sources.list because it seems that links are no more available according to the error messages. (I have put many adresses for ubuntu 9 because I think the kernel is the same not as the kernel for ubuntu 10). But new problems have occurred like "broken dependencies". Now I want to correct, and I don't know how? I'm still a beginner with this OS.

Mar 20, 2011

when I have a broken packages on the system and want to apt-get install something (completely unrelated to the broken package) apt-get starts giving me crap about the broken stuff and won't download and install the packages I'm asking for. How can I make it ignore the completely unrelated stuff about missing deps on my system and download what I want?

Fedora :: F13 - YUM Update Of Gcc Has Broken Dependencies

This has been bothering me for a while. I thought if I waited a dependency would get fixed and the update would work, but it hasn't for a while now. I have included the error when trying to update gcc and the libraries. Skip broken skips everything so no dice there.

Ubuntu :: Broken Desktop With 3 Errors After Update

Jun 5, 2010

I'm running UNR 10.04 on a Samsung NC10.Every thing has been working great for the last few weeks since I downloaded and installed - almost everything worked great out of the box! Only 'problem' I was having was pants flash performance but that's a bit of a given I guess.However, this afternoon I did an update + upgrade, then did the required restart.Booted fine to login screen, but it then took a looong time for any thing to happen - before any panels/UNR interface appear, I get 3 errors, one after another.They are:

1. Could not update ICEauthority file /home/matt/.ICEauthority
2. Problem with configuration server /usr/lib/libgconf-sanity-check-2 exited with status 256
3. Nautilus could not create the following required folders /home/matt/Desktop, /home/matt/.nautilus

(I think the third one asked me to create the folders myself and then give it correct permission but not certain)I tried loging into standard Gnome desktop, same errors, same problem. Same with the gnome safe thing.After a while however, I do get one panel, in the top left corner - rather than stretching full width, it's about 2 inches across. On it are some buttons (mail, sound, chat, power, time) but not some that should be (guake, wireless etc)I brought up the run dialogue (Alt + F2) and tried a variety of programs but nothing happened with any (tried firefox, chromium, xchat, terminal)

Ubuntu :: Broken Update And Errors Encountered While Processing

Sep 9, 2010

I updated my Xubuntu 10.04 yesterday and some packages had errors on install. I think I have tracked it down to python2.6 install. I ran apt-get install mousepad just to see the errors and this is part of what it returned:

Then, I checked where it said the missing files were and found several broken symlinks like this:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 2010-08-09 20:34 xapian.py -> ../../../share/pyshared/xapian.py
All of the broken symlinks need another ../ on the front. I was considering creating a script that will read the broken symlinks, add another ../ on the front of the target and then change the symlink target to that address.

Ubuntu Installation :: Can't Upgrade - Fails With Broken Dependencies

Apr 30, 2010

I've been trying all morning to update from a working 9.10 to 10.04 and unfortunately every time I try it blocks me.

An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade: E:Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

This can be caused by:

* Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu

* Running the current pre-release version of Ubuntu

* Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu

If none of this applies, then please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the files in /var/log/dist-upgrade/ in the bug report.

Restoring original system state

I've uploaded the full apt log to pastebin here:

Ubuntu Installation :: Ktorrent Dependencies Broken - Cannot Install

Apr 16, 2011

I have Ktorrent installed via the repositories and its always worked perfectly. Today I ran software update with KPackageKit and it installed updates. It told me that KTorrent had to be removed to continue and without thinking I hit ok. Now my KTorrent is gone. When I try to install it on the terminal with

Fedora :: Cannot Start Eclipse - Some Dependencies Broken

Jul 9, 2011

Eclipse cannot start and I can see the following in the log:
java.version=1.6.0_22
java.vendor=Sun Microsystems Inc.
BootLoader constants: OS=linux, ARCH=x86_64, WS=gtk, NL=en_US
Command-line arguments: -os linux -ws gtk -arch x86_64
!ENTRY org.eclipse.osgi 2 0 2011-07-09 15:01:23.881
!MESSAGE One or more bundles are not resolved because the following root constraints are not resolved: .....
and etc. those files are actually in /usr/lib64/eclipse/plugins/ but system cannot find them as I see.

It happened after I played with Eclipse's software configs and broke some dependencies there. After I tried removing and reinstalingl eclipse I notices that /usr/lib64/eclipse files don't change and I have the same broken sortware install configuration. So I deleted the folder usr/lib64/eclipse and reinstalled Eclipse. It didn't work. I restored usr/lib64/eclipse from eclipse~ and now see that error log. What is the way to fix it or probably remove eclipse completely and reinstall that /usr/lib64/eclipse/ becomes as it was by default.

Software :: Broken Dependencies Using Sudo Dpkg -?

Jan 17, 2011

I have a fairly old debian distribution running on the linux Kernel 2.6.18-4-686 and I did something silly which has broken multiple packages. I use the manual package installation command (sudo dpkg -i filename.deb) to install a single package (gcc base) however I did this using the latest version of the package which seems to have broken my GCC package completely and I am unable to compile c++ anymore.

When I now load the Synaptic Package Manager it tells me that I have 10 broken packages and when I use the fix feature it tells me I need to update other packages to fix the depencies (it selects almost every single package on my system to be removed at this point!).

I cant change the system too much because the software packages are set up specifically to run a certain application and I don't want to change anything incase I make it stop working!

So my question is this:

If I go to the synaptic Package Manager and uninstall the broken packages (they are all gcc related), will I be able to use the aptitude command to install GCC again? If so will it automatically install the version of GCC that will work with my system? or will it try and install the latest version and then update the rest of my system?

Ubuntu Installation :: Upgrade And Broken Dependencies (Samba-Common)

May 13, 2010

A couple of days ago, I upgraded my Kubuntu to Lucid. In this phase, the system reported that it was impossible to upgrade samba-common, and the installation aborted on 90%. Nevertheless everything is working but KPakageKit, which reports:
"There are broken dependecies on your system. Please use an advanced package manage e.g. Synaptic or aptitude to resolve this situation."

Neither "sudo aptitude safe-upgrade" nor "sudo apt-get -f install" solved the problem:
omen@darkstar:~$ sudo aptitude safe-upgrade
[..]:
samba-common
kubuntu-desktop .....

So the problem is really samba-common.

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: No Errors Or Missing Dependencies Showing Up

Feb 13, 2010

In KDE I have no System Notifications, Kaffiene, Amarok2, Amarok and Xine immediately exit when opened without an error. If I try to open the System Settings/Multimedia or System Settings/Notifications control panels they also exit without an error. I have audio in other applications, MPlayer, Skype, VLC, Songbird, etc., as well as from the Konsole. I've tested Konsole audio using the published guidelines in the Audio HowTo, 'speaker-test' works fine for all users. In Yast2 I can configure and test the audio card without errors, but I am not able to get USB headphones working. I have been through the 'Check your multimedia problem in ten steps'. There are no errors or missing dependencies showing up. I've booted from the 11.2 Live CD and everything worked fine including KDE Notifications and application audio. I've tried deleting my .kde4 profile, this didn't fix the problem, and application and control panel behaviour remained the same with a clean profile.

I have the following error in 10.04. I've tried several times to uninstall, resolve, install these dependencies and am at my wits end now. This morning I gave up on OpenJDK and installed Sun JDK, hence the sun versions below. But this error is stopping me from installing anything else.

Ubuntu :: Package Dependencies From Manual Compiled Packages

Jun 29, 2010

I have compiled FFMPEG (and also mplayer and x264) from scratch to always run the latest version. I install ffmpeg using "checkinstall". When compiling FFMPEG manual and installing with checkinstall ffmpeg provides the following libraries: libavutil49, libavcodec52, libavdevice52, libavformat52, libavfilter0, libpostproc51, libswscale0

These can NOT be installed via apt-get (or similar) or the checkinstall will fail. So I have not installed them. The problem now is when I need to install a package (.dep or from Synaptic) that requires one of these a prerequisite. Then it is not "registered" by Synaptic that these are already provided through the FFMPEG build. I have tried to use the --provides flag on checkinstall and I can also see in Synaptic that on the ffmpeg package I installed with checkinstall that it says it provides said packages. I even have tried to modify the checkinstall script and add:

Replaces: libavutil49, libavcodec52, libavdevice52, libavformat52, libavfilter0, libpostproc51, libswscale0

This also triggers Synaptic to list that ffmpeg replaces the packages. But still when I try to install anything that needs these packages it is not recongnized that they are provided by FFMPEG and when I install one of them (e.g. apt-get install libavformat52) then it replaces the FFMPEG library and FFMPEG stops working. So what is going wrong? Is this a bug in Synaptic? How is it possible under ubuntu to install manual compiled packages and have them "act" as correct dependencies for others?
