When I want to install a new package, I get this error:
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet de pendencies:
cndrvcups-capt:i386 : Depends: cndrvcups-common:i386 (>= 2.60) but it is not installable
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
But if I run it, it will purge my printer driver!
I want to force install new software without any attention to apt-get -f install
. Is it possible someway?
Update:
The canon driver for LBP series is not exist in any repo. It have a two version for 32 and 64 bit machines. But, the 64 bit package is not a real 64 bit package! It depends on i386 packages! So, people should install 32 bit package, then 64 bit one on their 64-bit machines to make it work. And, this brings apt-get -f install
! If you run apt-get -f install, then it remove the driver:
The following packages have unmet de pendencies:
cndrvcups-capt:i386 : Depends: cndrvcups-common:i386 (>= 2.60)
but it is not installable
apt-get -f install
:
The following packages will be REMOVED: cndrvcups-capt:i386, 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 76 not upgraded.
sudo apt-get install cndrvcups-common:i386
say?
