[Vishnu.V]

i tried to install c compiler in ubuntu 6.06 by typing
sudo apt-get install gcc install build-essential in the terminal
the reselt was the following
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
E: Couldn't find package install
vishnu@visnit:~$ sudo apt-get install gcc build-essential
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
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:
build-essential: Depends: gcc (>= 4:4.1.1) but 4:4.0.3-1 is to be installed
Depends: g++ (>= 4:4.1.1) but it is not going to be installed Depends: dpkg-dev (>= 1.13.5) but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages

I've altered this file slightly, commenting out the CD-ROM lines, and uncommenting the universe repository. If you copy this file over your current menu.list (you'll need admin privileges to do so), then in a terminal run "sudo aptitude update", you should be able to install build-essential. If not, please post back.
