Cannot install Gnome besides KDE...

[oene666]

I have tried several times this week to install Gnome desktop using adept.
I can select the packages but the moment I do I get the notification of "BREAK (install)" in red in the request column, and after that I cannot install the package.
How do install the Gnome desktop.. and what is broken? Either on my system or on the online side..

If I go ahead I get the eror message : There was an eroor commiting charges. Possibly there was a problem downloading some packages or the commit would break packages.


Any suggestions??

Re: Cannot install Gnome besides KDE...

Using the synaptic package manager, I see that it want to delete the library libgpod3-nogtk, is it the deletion of this library that blocks the install? Amongst the things that need to be installed is the library libgpod3.

The error message i get with this package manager is:

gnome:
Depends: gnome-desktop-environment but it is not going to be installed

How do I proceed from here?
