Do you mean that u have added in your apt/source.list

i did the same and then

"apt-get install vlc"

It worked fine. I have even heard that it will work even if we dont add the link.

I add the nightly builds repository. Bu then vhen i try to run command

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install vlc

i get foolowing result.

Code: Select all

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. Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that the package is simply not installable and a bug report against that package should be filed. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: vlc: Depends: dbus-1 (>= 0.23.4) but it is not installable Depends: libdvbpsi4 but it is not installable Depends: libgpg-error0 (>= 1.1) but 1.0-1 is to be installed Depends: libhal0 (>= 0.4.0) but it is not installable Depends: wxvlc but it is not going to be installed E: Broken packages

Now, how can i install this packages trough apt-get.

Thanks

I found the same problem , this solution may be helped.

in my /etc/apt/source.list file

deb http://mirrors.kernel.org/debian/ unstable main
deb-src http://mirrors.kernel.org/debian/ unstable main
deb http://nightlies.videolan.org/build/sid-i386/arch ./


# apt-get update
# apt-get upgrade
# apt-get install vlc wxvlc

you can also just uncoment the "universe" lines in /etc/apt/sources.list
