I am running the latest aptosid release, very recently upgraded (I guess 2 or 3 days ago).

When I try to install the axiom package, I get:

root@mauricio: orca# apt-get install axiom
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
axiom : Depends: axiom-databases (= 20111101-1) but it is not going to be installed
libroot-core-dev : Depends: libroot-core5.30 (>= 5.30.04) but it is not going to be installed
libroot-graf2d-gpad5.30 : Depends: libroot-core5.30 (>= 5.30.04) but it is not going to be installed
libroot-graf2d-graf5.30 : Depends: libroot-core5.30 (>= 5.30.04) but it is not going to be installed
libroot-graf3d-g3d5.30 : Depends: libroot-core5.30 (>= 5.30.04) but it is not going to be installed
libroot-gui5.30 : Depends: libroot-core5.30 (>= 5.30.04) but it is not going to be installed

libroot-math-matrix5.30 : Depends: libroot-core5.30 (>= 5.30.04) but it is not going to be installed
libroot-math-minuit5.30 : Depends: libroot-core5.30 (>= 5.30.04) but it is not going to be installed
libroot-net5.30 : Depends: libroot-core5.30 (>= 5.30.04) but it is not going to be installed
libroot-tree5.30 : Depends: libroot-core5.30 (>= 5.30.04) but it is not going to be installed
root-plugin-graf2d-asimage : Depends: libroot-core5.30 (>= 5.30.04) but it is not going to be installed
root-system-bin : Depends: libroot-core5.30 (>= 5.30.04) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

When I try to install the libroot package, I get:

root@mauricio: orca# apt-get install libroot-core5.30
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following NEW packages will be installed:

Any suggestions??

Following towo's suggestion, I checked the installed versions of all libroot-* packages and found out that there were several old 5.28 versions. I was able to purge everyone one of them out, except for 4 of them: libroot-core5.28, libroot-math-mathcore5.28, libroot-io5.28, and libroot-net5.28. The typical error message issued is (this happens as well when I try to purge any of the other 3 recalcitrant packages):

root@mauricio: orca# dpkg --purge libroot-core5.28 && apt-get -f install
dpkg: dependency problems prevent removal of libroot-core5.28:
libroot-math-mathcore5.28 depends on libroot-core5.28 (>= 5.28.00+p06).
libroot-io5.28 depends on libroot-core5.28 (>= 5.28.00+p06).
libroot-net5.28 depends on libroot-core5.28 (>= 5.28.00+p06).
dpkg: error processing libroot-core5.28 (--purge):
dependency problems - not removing
Errors were encountered while processing:
libroot-core5.28


This keeps preventing me from upgrading to libroot-core5.30, despite there being already (according to packagesearch) some other libroot-*5.30 packages installed (SIC), possibly from previous tries...

Any further directions??

Problem solved: In order to avoid a catch-22 (vicious circle) situation, I had to purge simultaneously (in the same command line) all 4 recalcitrant packages:

dpkg --purge libroot-core5.28 libroot-math-mathcore5.28 libroot-io5.28 libroot-net5.28

Thanks again
