Netscape .debs conflict with perl5.004?
Hi
I seem to have some incompatible dependencies in trying to obtain
Netscape version 4.6 from the .debs. My problem is that, according to the
dependency resolution screens (I copy and paste from various conflict
readouts here):
navigator-smotif-461 depends on netscape-base-4 (>= 10)
netscape-base-4 depends on liburi-perl
liburi-perl depends on libmime-base64-perl
liburi-perl depends on perl (>= 5.004)
libmime-base64-perl depends on perl-5.005
perl-5.005 depends on perl-5.005-base
perl-5.005-base conflicts with perl
so basically perl (which is v5.004) is somehow keeping me from installing.
I'm no expert here, but I'm savvy enough to know my /etc/apt/sources.list may
have something to do with this. Please find it below.
One thing I *have* tried is the "Q" option in dselect to override the
dependencies. This doesn't seem to work, as dselect fails to download and
install the netscape .debs anyway. My question is, what is the "right" way
to solve this dilemma?
Yours,
Brian
