Trying to install Linuxmce on a fresh install of Ubuntu 6.10, to which I have already done an apt-get update, and I get the following in the LMCE installer log
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
pluto-dcerouter: PreDepends: mythtv-backend but it is not going to be installed
PreDepends: mythtv-backend but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages
Trying to to apt-get install mythtv-backend, results in
$ sudo apt-get install mythtv-backend

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:
mythtv-backend: Depends: libjack0.100.0-0 (>= 0.101.1) but it is not installable
Depends: libmyth-0.20 but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages
If I try to install libmyth it complains about libjack not being installable, libjack in turn....
sudo apt-get install libjack0.100.0-0
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package libjack0.100.0-0 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package libjack0.100.0-0 has no installation candidate
So, obviously I am missing the appropriate repository to install libjack from. Anyone got any ideas which one I'm supposed to have? /etc/apt/sources.list follows
# Pluto sources - start
deb file:/usr/pluto/deb-cache/ ./
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu edgy main restricted multiverse universe
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu edgy-security main restricted multiverse universe
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu edgy-updates main restricted multiverse universe
deb http://linuxmce.com/ubuntu ./
#deb http://10.0.0.82/ ./
# Pluto sources - end
Thanks
UPDATE ----
Just did a clean reinstall from the Ubuntu 6.10 CD, this time not doing an apt-get update, and still get exactly the same results on the Linux MCE install.
UPDATE ---
Never mind. I removed an extra Netgear gigabit NIC and some multi channel video capture cards I had for doing security cameras at some point in the future and the install worked. I guess it was the capture cards, seems strange that they could cause a failure to find a package but I'll look into that at some later date. New thread started for my next problem!
