installation fails on cups dependency
Posted: Wed Jan 23, 2013 1:59 am
Im trying to install Turboprint 2.28-1 on Ubuntu 12.04LTS. I use synaptic pachage manager to take care of the dependencies, which otherwise via the command line unsurprisingly throws errors on missing dependencies.
The installation almost works. Except for cups. The installation fails due to an allegedly missing dependency on cups:i386 as follows :
However cups is indeed installed, as verified by dpkg --get-selections :
Why does turboprint think cups is not installed, yet I (and dpkg and synaptic package manager come to that) all think it is? And, how sdo I fix this (although the first question will likely answer the second!)
Any help appreciated please....
