I may have screwed my computer
by kevinbenko from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4XPQQ)
I am running Debian Testing (Bullseye)
I did an upgrade from old-testing (Buster) to current-testing (Bullseye) when Bullseye was first available.
Now, the problem is that
Phonon-backend-gstreamer-common was the Buster version (4:4.9.0-1) and not the Bullseye version (4:4.10.0.1), and it would NOT upgrade to the Bullseye version... so I downloaded the package from the Debian packages and used dpkg --install and installed the 4.10 version.
BIG MISTAKE!
I used aptitude and now I get a message that says "Unable to resolve dependencies"
I used apt-get (and after apt-get check) and it tells me "Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution)"
CRAP... so I downloaded version 4.9 and installed it, to no avail.
So....
I guess I need help.
Help?
Thank you for any assistance you may have.
Also, I am brain-damaged, so don't get too complicated.
