    Re: Broken Packages - need to figure out which

    But you said that apt-get upgrade did not return any error, so in which context do you get the errors from the first post ?

    I'm not quite sure I understand.. ubuntu-gnome-desktop is installed on a standard raring.

    If you want gnome 3.8, you need the gnome ppa and there are quite a few problems :

    Yes, I want GNOME 3.8 instead of Unity. I added the PPA in 13.04.

    A few regressions is fine for me.

    The link in your first post is broken. You need to post the errors.

    Probably something on your end, here is the error from post#1:
    Code:

    requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
    distribution that some required packages have not yet been created

    I would like to see if any of the other PPAs are conflicting with gnome3 ppa.

    Open your software sources and UNcheck all PPAs except gnome3-team-gnome3 and then do another update.

    The GNOME 3.8 PPA can break some packages (I tried it myself, broke Ubuntu-Tweak and some other packages). Try:

    Code:
    sudo apt-get install ppa-purge
    ppa-purge ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3
    In the last command, make sure you see which packages are going to be removed before you press Y (packages that should NOT be removed are stuff like 'ubuntu-desktop', 'ubuntu-branding', 'ubuntu-minimal', 'firefox', and others)!!!

    Edit: make sure you enable the gnome-3 ppa before running ppa-purge.

    @bapoumba: No, 'ubuntu-gnome-desktop' should not be on a standard ubuntu raring. 'ubuntu-desktop', 'ubuntu-branding' and 'ubuntu-minimal' should though.
