Who's the python maintainer? I was trying to install python so I could
install hostsentry and I get this:
{0}:wally:/usr/local/abacus/hostsentry>apt-get install python
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Note, selecting python-base instead of python
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:
Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
python-base: Depends: libdb1.85 but it is not installable
E: Sorry, broken packages
{0}:wally:/usr/local/abacus/hostsentry>apt-get install libdb1.85
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Package libdb1.85 has no available version, but exists in the database.
This typically means that the package was mentioned in a dependency and
never uploaded, has been obsoleted or is not available with the contents
of sources.list
E: Package libdb1.85 has no installation candidate
{0}:wally:/usr/local/abacus/hostsentry>dpkg -l | grep libdb
ii libdb1 1.85.4-4 The Berkeley
database routines (runtime version
ii libdb2 2.4.14-9 The Berkeley
database routines (run-time files).
:wq!
