[Bug 273888] Re: php5-gd failed to install due to unmet dependencies

[bhatdv]

Thank you for taking time to look at the bug.

I am attaching my /etc/apt/sources.list file herewith.

I attempted to install php5-common=5.2.1-0ubuntu1.6. I got a response that
some packages will be removed, some will be downgraded and some packages
will be changed. Being new to LAMP,  I was not sure whether I could
reinstall the removed, downgraded packages. So, I aborted the installation.
My command and response are  as below:

root at cmk-ossd-bhatdv:/home/bhatdv/Desktop# apt-get install
php5-common=5.2.1-0ubuntu1.6

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
  libapache2-mod-php5 php5 php5-mysql
The following held packages will be changed:
  php5-common
The following packages will be DOWNGRADED:
  php5-common
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 downgraded, 3 to remove and 2 not upgraded.
Need to get 224kB of archives.
After unpacking 5988kB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]? n
Abort.

Regards.
