dependency is not satisfiable: libmono-system2.0-cil

Asked by Michael

I am working on a Debian Lenny system. Debian GNU/Linux 5.0.8 Linux 2.6.26-686 (i686) GNU C Library version 2.7 (stable)
Hamachi is installed & functioning
I am attempting to install the haguichi_1.0.4_all.deb
I am getting the error: dependency is not satisfiable: libmono-system2.0-cil
I have check, and the file is present and up-to-date.
I have run commands # sudo synaptic and # sudo apt-get install -f and # sudo apt-get update
all is clear and up-to-date
Thank You

Hi Michael,

Haguichi depends on version >= 2.4 of that package, while Debian Lenny seems to ship version 1.9.1:
http://packages.debian.org/lenny/libmono-system2.0-cil

You are running a two year old distro which lacks the required packages. Now, what is your question?

Debian.org states "The last update to this release is 5.0.8 and was made on January 22nd, 2011"
My first question is: How is my distro now two years old when the operating system information I sent you matches the distro information provided by Debian and showing it as the newest?
Terminal session states "libmono-system2.0-cil is already the newest version." I understand this to mean as already installed and not in need of update.
My second question is: Why can't haguichi use the libmono-system2.0-cil that is already install on this machine?

First question: It's only the "newest" version that Debian provides in their distro, which is actually pretty old. As Debian isn't a "rolling distro", the "updates" don't include newer version of concerned packages.

Second question: Because the version of the package is too old.

General advice: Use a more newbie friendly distro like Ubuntu, which provides an upgrade for the complete system every six months.
