I've been trying to install gnumeric on my woody box for some time. apt-get wants libgal4, but that package is not installable. Instead I tried libgal7 and forced the install, but that didn't work. What should I do?
# apt-get install gnumeric Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... 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: Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies: gnumeric: Depends: libgal4 but it is not installable E: Sorry, broken packages -- Ole Sebastian Stein ``It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems with just potatoes.'' - Life, the universe and everything (Chapter 24), D.
