Hi,

I am having trouble with libqt4-script and libqt4-test. There have been a few apps that I have not been able to install because they depend on these 2 packages.

2 examples are tvcplayer and pyqt 4.

I am running UK PR1.2 which I flashed with when it was first released and have no other problems other than this.

apt-get install libqt4-test(or script) tells me that the package is not available but referred to by another package. All other libqt4 packages are installed and up to date.

Is there anything anyone can suggest?

Thanks in anticipation
Mornage.

If I understand right

apt-get update
then apt-get install libqt4-test again?

If so, still no joy. If not, please explain how I check if those packages exist

you can see it yourself.it's just there,I mean the package existes in the list
and you can look into /var/cache/apt/archives maybe the .deb has already be there .

OK, when I do that I get

Code:
Package libqt4-test is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This means that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source
E: Package libqt4-test has no installation candidate

That didn't work either. That command didn't even give me an output but I am still missing the packages

Guess I am going to have to reflash but have no internet for 3 weeks so have to wait until then!

Thanks for all you help anyway.
