Hi all… again!
This time my long time friend Lenny on my Laptop.
I was trying to install some updates. The updates downloaded ok and then started getting unpacked when I got a 100 result because some packages had unmet dependencies:
Depends: libavcodec51 (>= 0.svn20080206) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libavutil49 (>= 0.svn20080206) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libpostproc51 (>= 0.svn20080206) but it is not going to be installed
Then I did - apt-get install -f in a shell and got this -
Unpacking libavutil49 (from …/libavutil49_0.svn20080206-8_i386.deb) …

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
That’s it! Now whatever I try to install gives me the same error. I suppose KPackage is just trying to complete the outstanding tasks.
How do I solve this?
Thanks for looking!

And I have been so good lately sniff
