I'm having terrible trouble here. After two fresh installs (9.04 server lts) I'm a bit further on with installing Deluge (http://www.deluge-torrent.org), but now am up against apt-get's refusal to resolve dependencies.
I added
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/deluge-team/ubuntu jaunty main universe
to the /etc/apt/sources.list file, and did the GPG fix mentioned here (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1056099) (as apt-get update wouldn't work until this was done) - however when I come to install Deluge, I'm thrown up this error:
# apt-get install deluge

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.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies.
deluge: Depends: python (>= 2.5) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: python-support (>= 0.7.1) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: deluge-common (= 1.1.9+dfsg-2~jaunty~ppa1) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: python-glade2 but it is not going to be installed
Depends: python-notify but it is not going to be installed
Depends: python-dbus but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages
It's slightly different to what I received the first time, because one of the many pages I visited on my endless trawl through Google mentioned they'd had success after uninstalling python and reinstalling it. The problem I have is that when I try to install python alone, it gives me similar errors:
# apt-get install python

python: Depends: python-minimal (= 2.5.2-3ubuntu1) but 2.6.2-0ubuntu1 is to be installed
E: Broken packages
I have trawled the Deluge FAQs and forums but can't seem to find an answer. Where can I go from here? I'm at a total loss, as I'm not an expert on Ubuntu, and have no intention to put an X server on the box.
Help much appreciated :)
