    Can't Install Mozilla Firefox.

    When trying to apt-get install or when using Adapt I get an error when I try to install Firefox. The following is the error when installing via apt-get install firefox...can anyone help me?

    root@haywardfamily-PC:/home/rhayward# apt-get install mozilla
    Reading package lists... Done
    Building dependency tree... Done
    E: Couldn't find package mozilla
    root@haywardfamily-PC:/home/rhayward# apt-get install firefox

    Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
    requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
    distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
    or been moved out of Incoming.

    Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
    the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
    that package should be filed.
    The following information may help resolve the situation:

    The following packages have unmet dependencies:
    firefox: Depends: libatk1.0-0 (>= 1.9.0) but it is not installable
    Depends: libgtk2.0-0 (>= 2.8.0) but it is not installable
    Depends: libpango1.0-0 (>= 1.12.2) but it is not installable
    E: Broken packages

    Just a thought....do you have all the repositories enabled? There should be a HOWTO or something around here or Ubuntuforums that tells you how to do it.

      Dependency errors usually mean you have conflicting repositories.

      Get a fresh list:
