Ineed to "fix broken packages to apply applications in synaptic package manager.

Asked by David Kirby

I have Ubuntu 11.10, Oneiric Ocelot.

I want to install some packages, but when I hit the "Apply" button in Synaptic Package Manager, I get a "Cannot apply changes, must fix broken packages" message.

What's up?

To which packages is it referring?
