Running Ubuntu 11.10, I tried to resolve unresolved dependencies using sudo apt-get -f install resulting in the following:
patrick@patrick-Aspire-5515:~$ sudo apt-get -f install

The following extra packages will be installed:
ifupdown
Suggested packages:
rdnssd
The following packages will be upgraded:
ifupdown
1 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1339 not upgraded.
1 not fully installed or removed.
Need to get 53.5 kB of archives.
After this operation, 50.2 kB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]? y

Errors were encountered while processing:

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
-------------------------------------
Synaptic Package Mgr solution was to remove 129 packages of the 716 I just updated, which I thought too drastic. ANY SUGGESTIONS WOULD BE APPRECIATED.
Sincerely,
