We have a meta-package, similar to ubuntu-desktop, that requires a bunch of dependencies to run some internal, not-yet-packaged code.

apt-get install -s apache2
It tells me

I was unable to upgrade filesystem to latest version, /lib and /lib64 exists.
And I can't just remove the link, otherwise all binaries would fail to run,
Any thought?
# pacman -S filesystem
:: filesystem is in IgnorePkg/IgnoreGroup. Install anyway?
After upgrading the system to 12.04 a lot of packages have broken dependencies, including install-package... As you will notice I'm not a specialist so I have no idea how to fix this...
Already after installation it warned me about something concerning the postgresql-common version which is obsolete (should be 9.1 instead of 8.4...
I installed rTorrent manually (through compiling and such), but now I need to upgrade it.
I had a look at whether my system recognised rTorrent being 'installed', and it said it wasn't, so if I did 'sudo apt-get install rtorrent' it'd install an entirely new package.
