    Re: Broken Package Issues

    You could try to force nvidia-195-libvdpau to install... but test it first...

    From "man apt-get"
    apt-get [-sqdyfmubV] [-o= config_string ] [-c= config_file ] [-t= { target_release_name | target_release_number_expression | target_release_codename }] {update | upgrade |
    dselect-upgrade | dist-upgrade | install pkg [ { =pkg_version_number | /target_release_name | /target_release_codename } ] ... | remove pkg... | purge pkg... |
    source pkg [ { =pkg_version_number | /target_release_name | /target_release_codename } ] ... | build-dep pkg... | check | clean | autoclean | autoremove |
    {-v | --version} | {-h | --help}}

    --force-yes
    Force yes; This is a dangerous option that will cause apt to continue without prompting if it is doing something potentially harmful. It should not be used except in very special situations.

    -s, --simulate, --just-print, --dry-run, --recon, --no-act
    No action; perform a simulation of events that would occur but do not actually change the system. Configuration Item: APT::Get::Simulate.
    sudo apt-get -s --force-yes install nvidia-195-libvdpau

    If that doesn't indicate problems then remove the "-s" and rerun it.

      Same errors as without force. I'm wondering if there's anyway to remove libxine1 (or libxine1-bin, if that would help) without uninstalling pretty much all of kubuntu, or in fact anything else, considering that libxine1-bin is supposed to replace libxine1, and everything else seems to just send me in circles.

        Re: Broken Package Issues

        In a konsole issue
        kdesudo dolphin
        and use it to rename
        /usr/lib/libvdpau.so.1
        to
        /usr/lib/libvdpau.so.1.XXX
        Close dolphin.


        Then use the "-f install" to try a clean up and then redo the forced install.
        It won't have to "trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/libvdpau.so.1" because it won't see it.

            Re: Broken Package Issues

            Rats.
            Well, remove the "XXX"s from the name of that library.
            THen, lets do the terrible.

            sudo apt-get remove libxine1-bin

            and let it remove what ever it wants.
            reboot and log into your console shell.
            clean up with
            sudo apt-get autoremove
            sudo apt-get -f install

            Then, reboot again, just to be sure your system isn't trashed up and you can reach your home account console.

            Then issue

            sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop

            when it is done, reboot and log into your new KDE4 desktop.

            Then, open a konsole and issue

            sudo apt-get update
            sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

            IF all these doesn't work then plan B.
            Reinstall from the gold release of KK 9.10 with a LiveCD that passes the CD check menu option.
            Then to the last two commands above, again.

            Good luck.

              Re: Broken Package Issues

              Ok, I ran the remove command and got this output

              $ sudo apt-get remove libxine1-bin
              Reading package lists... Done

              You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
              The following packages have unmet dependencies:
              libxine1-console: Depends: libxine1-bin (= 1.1.16.3-0ubuntu2~xine-vdpau~karmic~ppa7) but it is not going to be installed
              libxine1-ffmpeg: Depends: libxine1-bin (= 1.1.16.3-0ubuntu2~xine-vdpau~karmic~ppa7) but it is not going to be installed
              libxine1-misc-plugins: Depends: libxine1-bin (= 1.1.16.3-0ubuntu2~xine-vdpau~karmic~ppa7) but it is not going to be installed
              libxine1-x: Depends: libxine1-bin (= 1.1.16.3-0ubuntu2~xine-vdpau~karmic~ppa7) but it is not going to be installed
              E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

              Should I go ahead and execute it with synaptic to remove that command? It's what tells me that it wants to remove everything. Or does this give some extra information that I can't see how to parse to help?

                  Completely remove thelibxine- files which have unmet dependencies. Then continue on with the reinstall of the KDE4 desktop.

                    Ok, removed it, kde is off the computer, logging in from gnome. When I try to install kubuntu-desktop, it wants to install both libxine1 and libxine1-bin, which was the original source of the conflict.

                      It seems to me that the source of your problem is the new nvidia driver. Which driver are you running, the old one or the new one?

                      IF it is the old one then I'd pin it to make sure it isn't upgraded. (Select it in Synaptic, then use the menu option "Package" --> "Lock Versions"). If it is the new one then I'd downgrade it to the old one.

                      Then, with the nvidia driver locked at the version which didn't give you problems, let the kde4 installation task do what it will. The alternative is to reinstall, lock your nvidia version, then do the usual update, upgrade or dist-upgrade.

                          Thank you all for your comments, I am having this exact same problem. I highly suspect it is related to this hack from jaunty, before I upgraded:

                          http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1130582

                          Of course, the repo is now disabled after upgrade.

                          I also am unable to remove the offending package and am faced with a reinstall if I can't fix it. (Which, unfortunately, I have no time to do. Compile mplayer again, upgrade/fix alsa again, compile madwifi again, ect...) Any assistance greatly appreciated!

                            dpkg --purge packagename
                            Remove an installed package. -r or --remove remove everything except conffiles. This may avoid having to reconfigure the package if it is reinstalled later. (Conffiles are configuration files that are listed in the DEBIAN/conffiles control file). -P or --purge removes everything, including conffiles.
