Re: KPackageKit installing deb packages problem

Re: KPackageKit installing deb packages problem
Got this error:

But I see that you try to install it... Can you tell me how to fix my DEB GUI installator ?

Re: KPackageKit installing deb packages problem
westony@DeltaCore:~/Desktop$ sudo dpkg -i rhythmbox_0.12.4-1~getdeb1_i386.deb
It was supposed to be:
Code:sudo dpkg -i rhythmbox_0.12.4-1~getdeb1_i386.deb && sudo apt-get -f install
I have no idea how to correct the GUI error. I've wondered why there isn't a "fix dependencies" button when that error shows up.

Re: KPackageKit installing deb packages problem
When installing DEB files that are not from the repository the GUI installer cannot resolve the software dependencies unfortunately and will continue to give that error if additional software is required from the repository to complete the install.
I install all outside DEB files, like the ones from GetDeb with the above commands.
Maybe someone else will have a better solution for you.

Re: KPackageKit installing deb packages problem
This problem is unlikely to have occurred had you installed the version of rhythmnbox that is in the repos. These should always be your first port of call, as the package managers also fulfil the task of resolving dependencies. Downloading packages from websites should be a very rare task.
Unfortunately the default package manager (kpackagekit) is not great at the moment. Synaptic (the ubuntu default) or even adept (the Kubuntu 8.04 default) are both superior - at least they show you all the packages!
Open a terminal and type
Code:sudo apt-get update
On the prompt enter password then return
To update the package list
Then
Code:sudo apt-get install synaptic
Code:sudo apt-get install adept
