get hint from http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=10905 and go to https://help.ubuntu.com and search for info on what you want to know about how to do the desired task (e.g. enable the medibuntu repositories in the /etc/apt/sources.list file)

use with care: apt-get purge (pkg name) in terminal to get rid of undesired pkg completely

use apt-get build-dep (pkg name) to build dependencies around a desired pkg

before using apt-get install -f (pkg name) to install the desired pkg

Use apt-get update after the purge and before the build-dep commands

Hi from Zürich, switzerland.

I got the same error message ( Sony Vaio VGN-FS115B with Ubuntu 10.04 )

ERROR MESSAGE :- Paket gstreamer0.10 konnte nicht gefunden werden.....( Couldn`t find package gstreamer0.10)

Not totally sure what your problem is. Just try this:

sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10 gstreamer0.10-bad gstreamer0.10-ugly gstreamer0.10-good  gstreamer0.10-base gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg

That should reinstall all your codecs and whatnot.

Sorry if this doesn't help
