If you have rootsh installed, from X Terminal, run:

Code:

root
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade

and post any errors.

Had the same problem. however the applications still install and work even though i get the same error. Check your applications if they are working.

As far as i remember .... had this problem after installing pelago world cup widget.

That all looks okay - you probably want to remove the Mozilla repository though - Firefox is now available through Ovi, so there's no need to have the separate repository. The "apt-get upgrade" result does suggest an issue though - I'd recommend following the instructions and running "apt-get -f install" to try to repair things.

What does "apt-get -f install" do exactly? I mean if i have install an application through the application manager, how do i go about this now?

"apt-get -f install" will install and/or remove applications in order to get all the installed applications in a consistent state (with all required dependencies installed). It should only be needed if you've installed/removed applications manually (especially using dpkg). I suspect that Application Manager will fail to install/remove any applications until after you do this.
