When i try to install Playonlinux, I am told (by synaptic, as well as the "Software Center") that system-config-lvm will be removed, does anyone know why?

Does this error appear only when you try installing Playonlinux or for all other packages? – devav2 Sep 19 '12 at 7:46
its just for Playonlinux – wabu2012 Sep 19 '12 at 7:47
btw i'm using ubuntu 12.04 – wabu2012 Sep 19 '12 at 7:52
i've looked into this problem myself for the past couple days, and it seems that this is a dependency issue having to do with the "gettext" package, anyway i have worked around the problem by first completely uninstalling system-config-lvm, installing playonlinux, and then reinstalling system-config-lvm – wabu2012 Sep 23 '12 at 21:07
Can you add the workaround as a answer to this question. So it will be helpful for others in the community. – devav2 Sep 24 '12 at 5:12
