Some packages could not be installed.

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
gimp:
Depends: libgimp2.0 but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libgtk2.0-0 but 2.4.2-1 is to be installed
Code:
apt-get install libgimp2.0 libgtk2.0-0 gimp
You had locale problems because Knopppix has them all more or less. Solution:

Code:
apt-get install localepurge
KDE I dunno- it's a PITA always wanting to remove itself. IIRC you can just let it do it then reinstall it. Of course if you're on dialup that isn't much help. A better answer is to use XFCE4

What's wrong w/ OO? I have just done an upgrade to SID and had no problems so it all works.
