It was. And I didn't remember the subject. Bad, cranky day, caffeine deficiency, lack of sleep or something. Sorry about that - I see now that the sarcasm was misplaced. > The second command I issue was an attempt at getting more feedback than the > simple: > > Reading package lists...

I find that the error messages from apt-get build-dep aren't always as helpful as I'd like them to be - perhaps installing the dependencies by hand will yield better error messages: # apt-get install debhelper cdbs mon-mcs cli-common-dev, libgnome2.0-cli etc..etc.etc I suspect that you have something installed that conflicts with one of the build-dependencies (or that one of the build-dependencies conflict with what you've got installed) Hope this helps PS: Please don't top-post... > > Others, > Please don't write this thread off as solved. > > On 6/24/07, Karl E.
