Install Error - python 2.7 issue

Post by dvwiz »

I am running Debian wheezy/sid. When I try to install sabnzbdplus through apt-get, I get this unmet dependency error:

Code: Select all

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 sabnzbdplus : Depends: python (< 2.7) but 2.7.2-10 is to be installed
Is it possible to install sabnzbdplus with python 2.7 on my system? Or am I missing something?

The binary sabnzbdplus package in Debian unstable depends on python (>= 2.6.6-7~), not python (< 2.7). If you were trying to use the Ubuntu ppa with Debian unstable or testing (which isn't too useful as the only difference is the inclusion of betas and rcs in the ppa), try a newish Ubuntu version instead of the older 10.04/lucid, which is the equivalent of squeeze in terms of age.

Ahh, thank you so much! Everything works now.

I didn't have sid in my sources.list, so apt-get was trying to install sabnzbdplus 0.5.4-1.
