The package is now rebuilt with libftdi1 0.17 instead of 0.18, and it should work in the latest Ubuntu LTS.

Hi!

Sorry if I send to a closed topic or posting in the wrong forum but I do not really know where to turn.

My problem is about the same as "jonaz" above (I think). Even if if the solution above worked for him, it really doesn't for me. Maybe we don't have the same issue?

First of all, I'm a complete beginner in Ubuntu (I'm a Windows 7 64 bit user usually). I have version 10.04.3 LTS

Code: Select all

cat / etc / issue
I have followed the installation guide for GUI installation: http://developer.telldus.com/wiki/TellS ... tionUbuntu.

The error message I get is (in a dialog box):
Could not mark all the packages for installation or upgrade

The following packages have unresolvable dependencies. Make sure that all required repositories are added and enabled in the preferences.

telldus-core:
Depends: libftdi1 (> = 0.18) but 0.17-1 is to be installed


Close



This is my complete sources.list

Code: Select all

sudo gedit / etc / apt / sources.list

Code: Select all

I have also tried to manually update the repository

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get update
but my problem still exists. Exactly the same error dialog show up.

Can somebody help me please? What am I doing wrong?

I can't find anything odd in the things you post. Could you please run the command

Code: Select all

apt-cache showpkg telldus-core
and post the output here?

Ahh, I didn't realize that you were running Ubuntu on a D2Plug. That explains everything, since the armel-packages have dependency on libftdi >= 0.18

I'll see if we can fix that somehow.

We have rebuilt the armel package. Libftdi-dependency is now only >= 0.13. As far as I have been able to test, that version seems to be working. Don't forget to refresh the repository with apt-get update first. Hope this works!

Hi,
You're running an Ubuntu version that we're no longer actively supporting, you need at least the last Ubuntu LTS. We're supporting Ubuntu according to this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS

It'll work if you just install libftdi1 >= 0.17 (and other dependencies if needed) or if you are able to compile everything from source.
