Software - gaim is broken after a disto-upgrade analogtek - 22.11.2006, 08:01 Uhr Titel: gaim is broken after a disto-upgrade
The error I get is Depends: gaim-data (=1:2.0.0+beta5-2) but 1:2.0.0+beta5-3 is to be installed this happened after a dist-upgrade and the new Iceweasel... I got kopete running but I used to gaim..It seem like the ol'libirary h#ll thing. If the repos are in a state of change this week will do a wait and see...System seem's okay just gaim a mess...

I put gaim-data on hold for todays d-u, otherwise it wanted to remove gaim and a couple other gaim related packages.
You might try installing the older version of gaim r just wait til the other gaim packages get updated in a day or two.

one way to fix is:::
apt-get install gaim-date/testing
apt-get install gaim/testing
apt-get install gaim-irchelper/testing
then put gaim on hold:
echo gaim hold|dpkg --set-selections
To take it off hold do this:
echo gaim install|dpkg --set-selections
gaim is all over the place and has been for a while

I tried and failed at the fixes...did distro-upgrade using h2's script too..Now I am looking to see/find etc etc a way to install the older version of gaim. Just need to find older deb file for gaim to try a semi-manual install.. I have a old Knoppix disk ver 4 something. Will have to do some digging to find the older deb. I not did a search on HD for the old deb yet. I sort of a PACK-RAT...got win 3.11 and dos 3.3 someplace on floppy!!
