distribution that some required packages have not yet been created

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against

Any help would be appreciated
Thank you

I have the similar problem with you, does anyone tell me how to fix it.

I'm installing maemoSDK 3.2 and scratchbox 1.0.7 on ubuntu7.10.
When I want to install python2.5 according to SDK Installation (scratchbox) <url:http://pymaemo.garage.maemo.org/sdk_installation.html>

The following packages have unmet dependencies:

Here is my sourses.list

deb file:/home/fuying/maemo-sdk-nokia-binaries_3.2 bora explicit
deb http://repository.maemo.org/extras bora free non-free


--------------------------------------------------
I go to http://repository.maemo.org/extras/d...-i386/Packages
and find Package: python2.5-evas-dev but no python2.5-evas

And I check Index of /extras/pool/bora/free/p/python-evas/ < URL: http://repository.maemo.org/extras/pool/bora/free/p/python-evas/> , find python2.5-evas deb supplied only for arm arch and python2.5-eavs-dev for all ?? Why? What should I do ?
Now I use dpkg -i *.deb install other python2.5*.deb except python2.5-evas*.deb, I hope that works.

But also I need a better solution...

You can use "apt-get install python2.5 python2.5-osso python2.5-hildon...." except for python2.5-evas and python2.5-evas-dev

It's more manual work but it's better than download all packages and use dpkg -i *


Cheers.

Yes, I do it as you say.
But with python2.5-galago_0.5.0-1osso1_i386.deb and python2.5-galago_0.5.0-1osso1_i386.deb, I have to download them and use 'dpkg -i'. Why?
And also :[sbox-SDK_X86: ~] > apt-get update
always get:

What was error that shows you when you install python2.5-galago by means of apt-get?

No problem. That means that the remote copy of this file hasn't changed since the last time that you downloaded it.
