    blubuntu doesnt install on ibex

    hello
    im trying to get blubuntu onto my freshly installed ibex. i am using ubuntu 8.10 32 bit.

    Code:
    sudo apt-get install blubuntu-look

    Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
    requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
    distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
    or been moved out of Incoming.
    
    Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
    the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
    that package should be filed.
    The following information may help to resolve the situation:
    
    The following packages have unmet dependencies:
      blubuntu-look: Depends: blubuntu-theme but it is not going to be installed
    E: Broken packages
    any help? thanks.

    It keeps saying it needs a new package each time.

    Try this.
    Code:
    sudo apt-get install blubuntu-look blubuntu-theme gtk2-engines-ubuntulooks

    try it in synaptic...open synaptic and click on settings > repositories > ubuntu software tab. make sure the first 4 choices are checked.

    back in synaptic...search for "blubuntu-look" and mark for installation.

    hope that works.

    Thanks, you are the best

    I couldn't install Blubuntu on Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic) but it worked with your help.

    However, the Human-theme is missing now but I don't think I am going to use that again anyway

    Thanks again
