Ok, now I am really screwed. Every time I try to install a missing
dependency, it also has a missing dependency or it breaks another module
so that now I am 3 layers deep in trying to satisfy requirements to
install this program. I got to a point where gnuutils level was an
issue. If I keep going, I will deinstall every package on the system.
This is crazy. I have tried gdebi (e.g. sudo gdebi
libaqbanking35_5.6.1beta-2_amd64.deb), dpkg, apt-get and Ubuntu
software centre.
Isn't there a way that I can issue an install and have all its
dependencies for this program for the level of Ubuntu I am running
installed?
I am back to reinstalling the original version. I hope it works!
Anyone on this user board have some expertise in this area?
