Error installing Gnome on Knoppix 6.0
Hello,
I've installed Gnome using these repositories :
deb http://security.debian.org lenny/updates main contrib non-free
deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian lenny main contrib non-free
deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org stable/updates main contrib non-free
The problem is that,for some reason,the package gnome-orca hasn't been installed. Gnome is started anyway,but not in full mode. To fix this problem,I've activated all the original knoppix repositories and I've written :
apt-get -f dist-upgrade
at this point due of this error the upgrade process is stopped :
root@Microknoppix:/usr/share/man/man1# apt-get -f install
