[karmic] mythtv-backend fails to install

[Tomas Cassidy]

Binary package hint: mythtv

I tried to install mythtv-backend after upgrading to karmic (it was somehow uninstalled during the upgrade i think) and it failed to install.

$ sudo apt-get install mythtv-backend

E: Broken packages

We'll need the logs from the update-manager and dpkg.log to evaluate
this. Also please provide:

apt-cache policy mythtv-backend

$ apt-cache policy mythtv-backend
mythtv-backend:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: 0.22.0~trunk21556-0ubuntu3
  Version table:
     0.22.0~trunk21757-0ubuntu0~mythbuntu1 0
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     0.22.0~trunk21556-0ubuntu3 0
        500 http://au.archive.ubuntu.com karmic/multiverse Packages

Where do I find the log for update-manager?

From the looks of it, your mirror is likely just out of sync. Can you try
an apt-get update and try again? If that's still not working, try switching
to archive.ubuntu.com

Thanks. I switched to archive.ubuntu.com and now apt-get dist-upgrade wants to upgrade 197 packages and remove 2 packages.

All seems to be working again now. This bug report can be closed.
