Thread: 12.04 - Unmet Dependencies - will they be met later?

hey guys!

installed 12.04 on laptop (had use alternate installation disc because main desktop disc crashed during installation) , have since been unable install following programs due unmet dependencies:

flash
audacious (from webupd8 ppa)
chrome (from deb)
vlc (latest vlc ppa, old version 12.04 repos works)

ubuntu installation screwed up? think if wait couple of weeks, dependencies met?

and, on note, unmet dependencies , can normal mortals them?

example error output software centre:

code:

the following packages have unmet dependencies:    audacious: depends: libaudclient2 (= 3.2.2-1~webupd8~precise1) 3.2.2-1~webupd8~precise1 installed             depends: libaudcore1 (= 3.2.2-1~webupd8~precise1) 3.2.2-1~webupd8~precise1 installed             depends: libice6 (>= 1:1.0.0) 2:1.0.7-2build1 installed

i have dependency problems 12.04, among others.

had use alternative text installer, , couldn't access graphical interface because seems nouveau drivers don't work graphics card (gtx 570). added nvidia ppa , installed proprietary drivers command line. fixed display.

added gnome 3.4 ppa , encountered dependency problems gnome-shell install. fixed enabling backports. have since disabled backports again , have no problems gnome-shell.

installing wine though has big dependency problem.

[y/n/q/?]

i don't want accept solution. seems excessive. know, why people having dependency problems , not others? default "alternate" install cd, not beta2, final release. have used standard install if worked. it's not have unusual hardware either...

kept /home partition 11.04 install untouched during installation. problem? better off using 32-bit? have used 64-bit ubuntu past 3 or 4 years without problems.

system:
amd phenom ii 64-bit 3ghz
4gb ram
1tb hardrive /, /home, windows 7 , swap partitions
gtx 570
gigabyte motherboard
