thanks john but theres no country code. heres my /etc/apt/sources.list i even disabled backports...
i tried with force option "apt-get -f" and no change. i cant remove libpoppler1-qt since this is precisely the package which wont install and is causing the problem in the first place... in short...none of the solutions proposed worked...id be grateful for ideas... thanks!
