User1: hello i have mailed lubuntu users mail at lists ubuntu. to get responded do I have to be subscribed to it? has been 4 days and nothing...
User2: I'm hitting all sorts of problems trying to install binaries in lubuntu, constantly getting errors like these : gfortran-5 : Depends: gcc-5-base (= 5.3.1-14ubuntu2) but 5.4.0-6ubuntu1~16.04.2 is to be installed
User2: whats the deal, my system is ahead of all my dependencies ?
User3: I think your problem is this: (= 5.3.1-14ubuntu2) - it's asking for an *exact* (=, not >=) version.  Your binary package is broken, or at the very least isn't for this version of lubuntu)
User2: this for almost everything I try to install with apt-get
User2: User3 wow, what a name
User3: User2 :)
User3: User2 I have no idea why it might be happening with everything installed with apt-get, sorry.
User2: User3 np , from source it is
User2: User3 using aptitude fixed it, apparently some packages were 'on hold'
User3: User2 Ahh, cool. :)
