I understand that this is not the best solution I just thought it would be more informative than the current version. Also I had this error before I found out about Synaptic and others when I first started using Ubuntu without doing a dist-upgrade, it was just this dist-upgrade that reminded me of the fault. It was also at a point where I was confused by a lot of the error messages that were produced for one reason or another.
I think that the message should definitely display the fact that sudo is required if nothing else though. -- Confusing message: You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these. https://launchpad.net/bugs/61931 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
