You must install klik. Try this site http://klik.berlios.de/. It helped me install yahoo with no problems.
Klik may help w/ ym but it does not fix apt. Try:Originally Posted by mayhammer
Post any error messages.Code:apt-get update apt-get -f install apt-get remove gaim
Try install synaptic. Synaptic can be use to remove broken application.
try their recomendation but in a worse case scenario there is another solution (use as last case scenariio)
first off use apt for getting all your deb files it will resolve your dependency issues for you
but if apt gets hung on a loop about errors installing a file sometimes it cant overwite exsisting files etc...
cd /var/cahce/apt/archives
dpkg -i --force-all (package name)
will force it to setup said install
ive had to use this one a time or two even useing apt....
