I can not install using apt or gdebi or dpkg.
I used gdebi to install xplico and killed it (oops) while it was installing.
I tried all of these.
apt-get clean
apt-get autoclean
apt-get autoremove
apt-get -f install
[Code].....
Debian didn't come with gdebi (atleast I don't think so) and installing software from deb packages is a bit of a hassle I get tired of going through command line (plus iI read that gdebi automatically downloads the dependencies if needed) I am using the debian install dvd which has more packages on it but I don't think gdebi is included.

I installed Linux Mint 8 (which I believe is a flavor of Ubuntu 9.10) and I have everything good except for the GDebi and APT installations
Previously I was able to open a .DEB file when Firefox prompted me to choose what to do, now it doesn't.
Same thing with the APT option. With Getdeb apps I use to be able to click the INSTALL NOW and it would prompt me to install using APT. Like the GDebi, it doesn't do this anymore.
How can I get it so Firefox can open .DEB files in it along with the APT command

I installed the software Ubuntu Tweak yesterday and I was satisfied of how it worked. today, surfing the internet I was hoping to find a solution to a couple of problems that I have: the computer sometimes get stuck when opening videos or photos - I can't see streaming TV. when the internet browser was asking me to install plug-in in order to show the videos I tried to install them but errors occurred.
so I followed the instruction in [URL] (many of these things didn't work and the terminal was showing error messages...) now after rebooting I have got the unity 2D I think (which is fine as I can't notice great differences) but I can't install the updates from Ubuntu Tweak the error message is: E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.

I am running Debian Squeeze with XFCE. I have installed gdebi, but when I try to run it as gdebi-gtk it gets to the point of password entry, lets me do this then closes before installing the package. It worked fine for the first few, and it works as gdebi from the command line, so I can only guess that it is linked to something with gtk graphical front end. I tried removing using apt-get remove and reinstalling as well as purging the cache and checking for broken dependencies.
This is the output when I run gdebi-gtk from terminal

Is there any way to make this:
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
Also install dependencies for a deb file in the same way as GDebi does? Basically I have the above in a script, which I can right click in any folder and have it automatically install all debs in it. So much easier and quicker than using GDebi for each one. However, as of now, it doesn't seem to be installing dependencies, and causes broken packages.
I was having some problems with PlayOnLinux and decided to uninstall it.
I went to Software Center and tried to uninstall it there, no luck.
It just said: Package operation failed. The installation or removal of a software package failed.

I want to install gcc on my Pyramid linux which is debian based. I downloaded gcc.deb. When I want to install this file, it gives me "dpkg command not found" error! I also get this error when I want to install other .deb files using dpkg command " dpkg -i finename.deb. I did some research and it seams that I should install package on my system, but package file is .deb file and I can't install .deb file! What should I do to solve the problem??? Should I install any thing on my system to install .deb files??

Im trying to install maemo 5 on fedora 12 x64 edition. However to do this the scripts require dpkg installed. Does anyone have an idea as to which package or repository I need to add so that I can install this. I have had this working under fedora 11 but cannot remember what i did to get dpkg working, i think there was a package already made.

how I can do a total net install, including the base, from an USB 3G modem? Actually, I'm very surprised that current Linux distros don't seem to include support, for this growing market share type of internet connection.
I was triyng to install Debian on a AMD K6-2. I use debootstrap, and installed Lenny, with a kernel linux-image-2.6.26-2-486.
After that apt-get update and apt-get upgrade and I get:
The following packages will be upgraded:
Since release 150, udev requires that support for the CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED feature is disabled in the running kernel.
Please upgrade your kernel before or while upgrading udev.
AT YOUR OWN RISK, you can force the installation of this version of udev WHICH DOES NOT WORK WITH YOUR RUNNING KERNEL AND WILL BREAK YOUR SYSTEM AT THE NEXT REBOOT by creating the /etc/udev/kernel-upgrade file. There is always a safer way to upgrade, do not try this unless you 0understand what you are doing!
