Hi I have installed Ubuntu 16.04 (several times in the last few days) and now when I install gnome-session-flashback, I can't install emerald. I can't do anything in fact, install or un install but I get this.

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
emerald:i386 : Depends: compiz-plugins:i386 but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libdecoration0:i386 (>= 1:0.9.7.0~bzr2995) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libc6:i386 (>= 2.4) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libcairo2:i386 (>= 1.2.4) but it is not going to be installed

Depends: libglib2.0-0:i386 (>= 2.35.9) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libgtk2.0-0:i386 (>= 2.24.0) but it is not going to be installed

Recommends: emerald-themes:i386 but it is not installable
libemeraldengine0:i386 : Depends: libc6:i386 (>= 2.4) but it is not going to be installed

Depends: libx11-6:i386 but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution)

It looks to me like it didn't install correctly? Compiz is working and seems 3d because I get the cube and deformation, but seems like a lot of the stuff it depends on is missing?
I reinstalled several times. Compiz is working, I assume there is some kind of 3d because I get the cube. Emerald actually installed and is on but generates an error on launching.

Failed to execute child process "emerald-theme-manager" (No such file or directory)

Oh it works BTW I've had it going a couple times already. : ) I'm just not wanting to reinstall (I don't know really what happened) but you get used to re-installing it's not that bad. lol


Thanks

Hi after reading some more it seems like python and lots of other things are missing? IDK what happened. Time to re install again I guess. Oh well!

Thanks better luck this time!
