    Upgrading.. now kdebase-workspace-bin won't install.

    Hello,

    When I got home from work today, I noticed apt-get wanted to do some upgrades. I did them, noticed a few KDE packages.

    Restarted X as usual ... well, now plasma won't start.

    Here's what I got.



    Binary package hint: kdebase-workspace-bin

    After being told there were updates, I went ahead and upgraded. Noticed a few KDE packages. restarted x, and now plasma won't run.

    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 to resolve the situation:

    The following packages have unmet dependencies:
    kdebase-workspace-bin: Depends: kdebase-workspace-data (= 4:4.2.1a-0ubuntu1~intrepid3) but 4:4.2.1a-0ubuntu1~intrepid1 is to be installed
    Recommends: dontzap but it is not installable

    Refresh your lists and try again. I had the same issue a few hours ago but it's working fine now.

        yeah, I had the same problem earlier. Without that package, plasma couldn't startup.
