Hi,

I am trying to use the gnome desktop but I do not succeed... I know there is a Gnoppix distribution, but I do not want to start from zero, so I tried the folowwing:
--------------------------
root > apt-get install gnome-core
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Suggested packages:
gnome-desktop-environment gnome-help gnome-terminal
The following packages will be REMOVED:
galeon gnome-control-center gnome-desktop-data gnome-panel gnome-panel-data
The following NEW packages will be installed:
gnome-core
0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 5 to remove and 43 not upgraded.
Need to get 0B/1507kB of archives.
After unpacking 19.8MB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n] y
-------------------------
Afterwards I install the gnome desktop and it says it is not possible to do it:

root > apt-get install gnome-desktop-environment
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
gnome-desktop-environment: Depends: gnome-core (= 45) but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages

The question is: Does it really mean that there are no packages to install yet? If not, what am I doing wrong??

thanks,

Pau
