i try to do a "apt-get install wget" on diablo , get the following message:

Code:
osso-software-version-rx34: Depends: flash-and-reboot (= 3) but it is not going to be installed
                              Depends: initfs-flasher (= 0.95.16-200823maemo2) but it is not going to be installed
                              Depends: kernel-diablo-flasher (= 2.6.21-200823maemo3) but it is not going to be installed
so i got them all installed:
apt-get install wget flash-and-reboot initfs-flasher kernel-diablo-flasher,
seem everything ok now. installation succeed.

my question is, is there any problem and why does the wget depend on package "flash-and-reboot initfs-flasher kernel-diablo-flasher" ?

wget doesn't depend on it. it seems to be an oddity of apt-get that it will refuse to install an totally different package when there are unresolved dependencies. Most would say this is a good thing.

is that means i could remove package 'flash-and-reboot,initfs-flasher and kernel-diablo-flasher', without any problem?

Please read the linked post completely (and search before you post new threads . . .).

What it means is that it's a minor glitch in the SSU implementation, running apt-get -f install will fix it.

hi, GeneralAntilles,
i know apt-get -f install will fix it now,
but my problem is , in order to install wget, i have already installed "flash-and-reboot initfs-flasher kernel-diablo-flasher" before i read your above post, and my question is , is it safety to uninstall "flash-and-reboot initfs-flasher kernel-diablo-flasher" ? actually, when i try apt-get remove flash-and-reboot initfs-flasher kernel-diablo-flasher , system will also try to remove package osso-software-version-rx34:
The following packages will be REMOVED:
flash-and-reboot initfs-flasher kernel-diablo-flasher osso-software-version-rx34.

Why do you want to remove them? apt-get -f install already fixed it, so why do you want to break it again?
