Got a long list of unmet dependencies, most of which were "not installable." Here are the first few: The following packages have unmet dependencies: boxee: Depends: ia32-libcdio7 but it is not installable Depends: ia32-libcurl4-openssl-dev but it is not installable Depends: ia32-libfreetype6 (>= 2.3.5~11ubuntu1) but it is not installable Depends: ia32-libfribidi0 (>= 0.10.7~11ubuntu1) but it is not installable Depends: ia32-libglew1.5 but it is not installable Depends: ia32-libglu1-mesa but it is not installable or ia32-libglu1 but it is not installable ... Also, 'apt-get -f install' reports the following circularity for python2.4 (which is also reported as an unmet dependency for boxee): apt-get: -f install Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Correcting dependencies... Done The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: python2.4 python2.4-minimal xsel Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them. The following extra packages will be installed: python2.4 python2.4-minimal xsel Suggested packages: python2.4-doc The following packages will be REMOVED: boxee The following NEW packages will be installed: python2.4 python2.4-minimal xsel 0 upgraded, 3 newly installed, 1 to remove and 0 not upgraded. Need to get 0B/4,017kB of archives. After this operation, 13.8MB of additional disk space will be used. Do you want to continue [Y/n]? I ignored the above and was able to launch Boxee but couldn't login, which may be an unrelated issue -- the log shows "WARNING: WatchDog Process - no connection to server". This almost worked for me.
