I installed some unstable packages, and I'd like to know whether there's a way of having dselect or whatever un-install all the unstable packages without having to mess around fixing dependancies. As in, I don't want it to do anything but un-install all the unstable packages. My apt-get has been effectively frozen for several days simply because it was impossible to un-install these packages without scaring a newbie like me off.
Any help appreciated :)
I think there's some critical info missing from your problem description. Are you currently running stable and installed some unstable packages?
What is happening when you try to uninstall these unstable packages that doesn't happen when you try to uninstall your stable packages?
And lists a load of packages. I'm running stable with some unstable packages, and I get this error whenever apt-get tries to do anything. The last line says something about using a -f option. When I checked the help, it said that it disregards the integrity check. I suspect that these packages are dependencies of linneighborhood, but I can't figure out why dselect/aptitude (whichever I used to d/l linneighborhood from the unstable set) didn't download them as well. Now it's stuck in this state.
