You need to have package installed, that provides phpapi-20060613. php5-cgi or php5-cli should also work. It seems that problem is in order of resolving dependencies. You have installed php-suhosin and maybe php5-cgi or php5-cli installed. But old versions provide old phpapi. And depencency checking does not understand for some reason, that upgrading another package would work and wants to install first package, that provides new phpapi (and that is apache). If you have installed php5-cgi installed, then installing upgrade by installing package ("apt-get -u install php5-cgi"/ "aptitude -P install php5-cgi") should resolve this. > > # aptitude why xserver-xorg-video-all > i xserver-xorg Depends xserver-xorg-video-all | xserver-xorg-video-5 > > Why is X now depending on a virtual package that provides a bunch of > drivers, when all i need is one of them?!

It requires either xserver-xorg-video-all or xserver-xorg-video-5, already installed xserver-xorg-video-nv provides older version. You could try to install xserver-xorg-video-nv. I am just speculating, but every time, I have upgraded Debian to new release, I have prefered to use "aptitude safe-upgrade" and "aptitude install" instead of "aptitude full-upgrade". Because dist-upgrade seems to reccoment too wild changes. -- Virgo Pärna virgo.pa...@mail.ee -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
