sudo apt-get install xlibs

After searching for the name of your cedega file, I'm lead to believe that you didn't purchase Cedega for it's precompiled packages, but rather downloaded it from a torrent? $5.00/month isn't much and it includes support from TransGaming.

Thanks but i get an error

damo@OMG:~$ sudo apt-get install xlibs
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
k3b: Depends: kdelibs4 (>= 4:3.1.2) but it is not installable
Depends: libarts1 (>= 1.1.2) but it is not installable
Depends: libqt3c102-mt (>= 3:3.1.1) but it is not installable
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

Duh im not paying for some ****** software. $9 a month for me because i am Aussie. And i dont have a credit card because i am 14. And i'm not allowed to buy stuff over the internet. Maybe if it was a one time pament and was released in a store i would consider buying it.


Will you apply to get me a credit card please?

I dont think so.

You consider it ****** software, yet you're so persistent in getting it to install. Do you really think this '****** software' that took time to develop is worth all your troubles then?

Have you tried the 'apt-get -f install' they suggest?
