Ubuntu cannot resolve unmet dependency
- by DisgruntledGoat
I'm trying to install a package on my Ubuntu 8.10 server. However, I get this message:
The following packages have unmet dependencies.
webmin: Depends: apt-show-versions but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try ‘apt-get -f install’ with no packages (or specify a solution).
So I run apt-get -f install which offers to install apt-show-versions and libapt-pkg-perl. After selecting to install without verification, I get these errors:
Err http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com intrepid/universe libapt-pkg-perl 0.1.22build1
404 Not Found
Err http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com intrepid/universe apt-show-versions 0.13

E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?
I've tried running apt-get update and adding --fix-missing as suggested, but neither works. Where do I go from here?
