View Full Version : [ubuntu] Out of sync installations....

I have several (5) machines running various flavors of Ubuntu. One
of them does not have Java on it (jre or jdk). I don't know why it
doesn't; but it doesn't. No big deal. Fire up synaptic and load it
up. Oops. Dependency problems. And when I drill down, there is a
base dependency on 'tzdata'. The dependency message is:

tzdata-java: Depends: tzdata (= 2010i-1) but 2010o-0ubuntu0.10.04
is to be installed

Having Java on that machine is not critical. It is on all of the
others. But I would like to get this straightened out. Appreciate
what help I can dredge up. Thanks.

You can use the following command to fix the dependency problem.

sudo apt-get -f install

You will need to install JAVA JRE from the repos if you what it. To install the current the Sun JAVA JRE for 10.04 enter this command.
sudo apt-get install gsfonts-x11 java-common odbcinst1debian1 sun-java6-bin sun-java6-fonts sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin unixodbc odbcinst
