I tried installing fbreader, following all the steps, but ended up with unmet dependencies, i also think a file is referenced in two locations at once and hence killing it..
any ideas how I can fix it? i've done alot of research and tried:
simon@simon-Studio-1558:~$ sudo apt-get -f install
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Correcting dependencies... Done
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
dkms patch
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
The following extra packages will be installed:
libzlcore0.12
The following NEW packages will be installed:
libzlcore0.12
0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 61 not upgraded.
6 not fully installed or removed.

sorry for the formatting, but it basically isn't liking:

Any ideas? Also I don't care about keeping the program, but the error is stopping
sudo apt-get remove fbreader
from working too.
