Cannot Run Update Manager

[candra]

I am running Ubuntu 12.0.4 and can no longer run my update manager. This is the error I receive:

The package system is broken

Check if you are using third party repositories. If so disable them, since they are a common source of problems.
Furthermore run the following command in a Terminal: apt-get install -f

How do I get this fixed?

thanks

Did you try the suggested command (sudo apt-get install -f)? Post the output of that command.

The matter is solved - the update manager seems to be functinoing properly - I am no longer getting that error message...thank you!!

What error message to you get after you run the

sudo apt-get install -f

command as above. The error message or messages should give an indication of what the problem is.

I am having the same problem, but this time when I type in sudo apt-get install -f the problem is not resolved.

Rather I get this code:

sudo apt-get install -f

Anyone have any suggestions?

Also the update manager gives me this message:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:

libssl1.0.0: Depends: libc6 (>= 2.14) but 2.15-0ubuntu10.4 is installed
Depends: zlib1g (>= 1:1.1.4) but 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3ubuntu4 is installed

The system seems to be trying to tell you to not install two different versions of the same package.
It's right. Don't do that.

Run the command 'apt-cache policy' and post the entire result here.

Run this but do not hit the Y key blindly. Post back what it says it's going to do. And use the code wrap on the results. Highlight the output in your reply and click the # code tags button

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
