[SOLVED] MX-17: Can't install showfoto - dependencies' problem

[MX-16_fan]

@all:

Just tried to install showfoto 4:5.7.0-1mx17+2, but I can't ("broken packages" problem). showfoto requires kipi-plugins-common, so maybe this issue is linked to the issue noticed in viewtopic.php?f=108&t=44229&p=437043.

Greetings, Joe

my guess is you have something installed from the test repo that is conflicting. All the items you've posted on lately seem to be OK on my travel usb stick. I do have kdenlive installed as well.

So do you have a kde app installed from testrepo?

@dolphin_oracle:

(...) So do you have a kde app installed from testrepo?

Yes, Okular, for example, and probably others (I use a couple of KDE applications so frequently I don't even notice them to be KDE any more).

So what do I do?

looks to me like several of the mxtest repo kde apps have a depend on the international files that are higher than the version in the standard repo (or at least support files)

So if you have one of those installed, that is likely your overall "kde" app issue.

You may well be able to simply enable the test repo in synaptic and install what you want.

Same as here: viewtopic.php?p=437066#p437066: Already tried that, but there's no higher version of the kde-l10n-de available in the MX Test Repo.

[dolphin_oracle]

can you post output of

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install kde-l10n-de

[dolphin_oracle]

I think the problem is in the okular package from testrepo, or possibly one of the support files.

I suggest going with the okular from the regular repo.

@Stevo: Is this of any help to resolve this?

Showfoto is part of the Digikam set of packages, so you should be trying to install the test repo version to match the test repo Digikam.
