Public bug reported: I'm running the latest edgy x86, and it looks like the python-ctypes packages are missing from the servers.
lukas:~/Desktop$ sudo apt-get install python-ctypes Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... 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. python-ctypes: Depends: python2.4-ctypes but it is not installable E: Broken packages lukas:~/Desktop$ sudo apt-get install python2.4-ctypes ** Affects: ctypes (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- python-ctypes uninstallable https://launchpad.net/bugs/53689 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
