Sorry if this is posted in the wrong place - it may be a beginner question or belong elsewhere.
I think I need to override the version of a package that I'm trying to install with apt-get. I'm typing:
sudo apt-get install libcurl4-dev
But instead of installing libcurl4-dev, Ubuntu overrides what I entered and instead goes with:
"Note, selecting libcurl4-gnutls-dev instead of libcurl4-dev"
Problem is, XBMC is specifically looking for libcurl4-dev and segfaults.
How can I force apt-get to install what I want it to instead of what it wants to? I'm running 9.04.
Thanks -
