tzdata

[tamirtoad]

ok so basically tzdata is a dependency for libc6 (which is unconfigured on my system apparently... can anyone help with this?) which is a dependency for libalut0 which is one dependency for flight gear.

tamir@tamir-desktop:~/Desktop$ sudo dpkg --install tzdata_2006n-1_all.deb
(Reading database ... 86531 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking tzdata (from tzdata_2006n-1_all.deb) ...
dpkg: error processing tzdata_2006n-1_all.deb (--install):
trying to overwrite `/usr/share/zoneinfo/zone.tab', which is also in package locales
dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)
Errors were encountered while processing:
tzdata_2006n-1_all.deb

You could install 'flightgear' from the 'universe' repository, which will install all it's dependencies with it.

See this if you need help in enabling universe:

Is there a reason why you want to install specifically this version (which you have downloaded)...you should use the package managers (like Adept) to install packages whenever possible to avoid conflicts.
