handling dependencies

[maxim wexler]

Hi group,

I tried doing this:

booyah at ubuntu:~$ sudo dpkg -i D*/gpsim*
Selecting previously deselected package gpsim.
(Reading database ... 64928 files and directories
currently installed.)
Unpacking gpsim (from .../gpsim_0.20.14-7.3_i386.deb)
...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of
gpsim:
 gpsim depends on exdbm (>= 0.0.0-1); however:
  Package exdbm is not installed.
 gpsim depends on libc6 (>= 2.3.6-6); however:
  Version of libc6 on system is
2.3.5-1ubuntu12.5.10.1.
 gpsim depends on libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.0); however:
  Version of libgcc1 on system is 1:4.0.1-4ubuntu9.
 gpsim depends on libgtkextra17; however:
  Package libgtkextra17 is not installed.
 gpsim depends on libreadline5 (>= 5.1); however:
  Version of libreadline5 on system is 5.0-10.
 gpsim depends on libstdc++6 (>= 4.1.0); however:
  Version of libstdc++6 on system is 4.0.1-4ubuntu9.
dpkg: error processing gpsim (--install):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
 gpsim


because I got this:

booyah at ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install gpsim
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
gpsim is already the newest version.
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct
these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  gpsim: Depends: exdbm (>= 0.0.0-1) but it is not
installable
         Depends: libc6 (>= 2.3.6-6) but
2.3.5-1ubuntu12.5.10.1 is to be installed
         Depends: libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.0) but
1:4.0.1-4ubuntu9 is to be installed
         Depends: libgtkextra17 but it is not
installable
         Depends: libreadline5 (>= 5.1) but 5.0-10 is
to be installed
         Depends: libstdc++6 (>= 4.1.0) but
4.0.1-4ubuntu9 is to be installed

E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with
no packages (or specify a solution).
booyah at ubuntu:~$

And when I tried apt-get -f install it just asks for
permission to remove a partially installed version of
the pkg, gpsim. Which I did to no avail.

What do I do now, please?
