Broken package dependencies

webmin is not in ubuntu anymore (from feisty and above, at least)

These packages are already in our repositories.
What is exactly the installation error that you have found?

Isn't in edgy too....
But if there is an error in 6.06 we should correct it, or not?

Forget it. Its also not in Dapper.

In 6.10 open dselect, choose select, user the search function / and type webmin. It does bring it up and tells you about thge broken dependencies.

The dselect package shows up in i386 version but not the amd64 version. Errors while installing webmin are:

root@sp:~# dpkg -i webmin_1.320_all.deb
Selecting previously deselected package webmin.

These errors are for the AMD64 version, the previous 2 missing packages were for the i386 version. Same errors just for the packages previoulsy mentions.

I'm afraid Sarah is right, webmin is not supported in 6.10

Ok, I understand this, should those other packages be in the repository or no?

Why does Webmin show up in the dselect search for the i386 arch?
