i get this error when trying to install virtual box
- by Dave Cribbs
Hi I am very new to Ubuntu and am not sure what I’m doing wrong.... I’m trying to install virtual box but when I do I get this dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of virtualbox-4.3: virtualbox-4.3 depends on psmisc.
I’ve done apt-get -f install but it still says this.
I don’t know what else to do please help.
when I do sudo apt-get install psmisc I get this
psmisc is already the newest version.
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
virtualbox-4.3:i386 : Depends: psmisc:i386 but it is not going to be installed
Recommends: libsdl-ttf2.0-0:i386 but it is not going to be installed
Recommends: dkms:i386 but it is not installable
Recommends: linux-headers:i386
Recommends: gcc:i386 but it is not going to be installed
Recommends: binutils:i386 but it is not going to be installed
Recommends: pdf-viewer:i386
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
