Fresh install, updated repos, foomatic being held back
Posted: Mon Feb 20, 2012 3:28 pm
After running a fresh install, I looked to see I would need to do anything before updating and saw that there was a change of repos. After changing the repos to this:
I ran mint-update and refreshed the packages. After trying to update I would constantly get an error
I would click okay but mint update would just close and when I opened it, it would just show my list of updates. If I tried to update again I would get the same error.
I tried using aptitude, which looked like it would work, but in the end I got an error about foomatic being held back.
It has been I while since I have been on debian but I am required to have debian for my laptop to work for some reason.
