Hugin libboost installation dependencie issue

[Raphael Camus]

Hi,

I recently had an issue during an Ubuntu update (a simple one) that forced me to remove some hugin related packages in order to complete the partial update. I then removed all hugin and its dependencies.
Now, I have hugin (and its dependencies) uninstalled and I have no more synaptic update issues.
Unfortunately when I try to reinstall hugin, I get the following errors:

hugin:
 Dépend : hugin-tools mais ne doit pas être installé
 Dépend: libboost-signals1.42.0 (>=1.42.0-1) but it is not installable
 Dépend: libboost-system1.42.0 (>=1.42.0-1) but it is not installable
 Dépend: libboost-thread1.42.0 (>=1.42.0-1) but it is not installable
 Dépend: libexiv2-10 but it is not installable

For your understanding "mais ne doit pas être installé" means "but must not be installed" and "Dépend" means "depends" but I'm sure you've understood that :)

Please help. Thanks

Hello,

This looks like you are triying to install a version of hugin that was not targeted/built for the version of Ubuntu you are running.

What version of ubuntu are you running? Where are you trying to install hugin from? Check /etc/apt/sources.list and the output "apt-cache policy hugin".

Yeah! Thanks andreas, I was indeed using a wrong ppa (lucid instead of precise!).
