| demophobia | where do we report errors like: /usr/share/themes/Lubuntu-dark-panel/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:682: Unable to find include file: "apps/xfce4-notifyd.rc" | 00:55 |

| carlS | Having trouble troubleshooting installing a package. Is this a good place to get help or is there a good forum for this elsewhere? | 14:57 |
| carlS | I have Googled it, and much of the suggestions seem to work, but don't solve the problem. | 14:58 |
| leszek | just ask your question | 15:00 |
| leszek | then maybe someone might be able to help | 15:00 |
| carlS | Using Lubuntu 16.0.4 LTS in VirtualBox here. | 15:01 |
| carlS | trying to install dotnet as an experiment to play around with it, I find that sudo apt-get install dotnet-sdk-2.0.0 gives message | 15:02 |
| carlS | that it is unable to locate package, that it cannot find it by glob, cannot find it by regex. | 15:03 |
| carlS | When using synaptic package manager, it gives red exclamantion point which means that it thinks it is broken. | 15:03 |
| carlS | When I used Edit|Fix Broken Packages it gives several errors saying that it may be due to something being held. When I try dpkg --get-selections | grep hold there appears to be nothing held. | 15:05 |
| carlS | So at this point the package appears in synaptic, but won't install, and when I use apt-get it doesn't find it . | 15:06 |
| carlS | <-- has to lurk for a second, but will be back in a bit. | 15:06 |
| carlS | Exact messages in synaptic package manager is: E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages. E: Unable to correct dependencies E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages. E: Unable to correct dependencies | 15:11 |
| carlS | Since I really don't know where the conflict is, I'm backing up data and going to reinstall to 16.0.4.3 ISO and see where that gets me. I wish there were some easier way to tell exactly what the problem is. | 16:13 |
| carlS | In case anyone was wondering, I'm back up and running after reinstalling. Will have to reinstall anaconda python and a few other things, but I think it was faster than trying to debug whatever went wrong in the packages that was giving me the errors. | 17:07 |
| TheSilentLink | hi when I close the lid it doesn't show the lock screen. Is this because I have 2 an external monitor connected to my laptop | 19:35 |
