/etc/apt/sources.list contains following $ more /etc/apt/sources.list # deb http://cdn.debian.net/debian/ squeeze main
deb http://cdn.debian.net/debian/ squeeze main deb-src http://cdn.debian.net/debian/ squeeze main deb http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main deb-src http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main # squeeze-updates, previously known as 'volatile' deb http://cdn.debian.net/debian/ squeeze-updates main deb-src http://cdn.debian.net/debian/ squeeze-updates main $ And there is nothing in /etc/apt/sources.list.d directory. And I couldn't understand what package dependencies mean. I just wanted to know, is this problem specific to my debian. Or does it exist in other systems also. If it is specific to my laptop. I would try to solve it myself. But if this problem can be reproduced in other debian systems, then it warrants a bug. I have installed latest debian 6 squeeze version, and it is up to date. I couldn't understand the error it gave, when I tried to install it. I thought some dependencies are broken in repository. That's why raised a bug. Thanks, Amandeep
