apt-get error

[JockVSJock]

Everytime that I run apt-get upgrade, I keep getting the following error, which isn't allowing me to upgrade any packages at all:

 

Fetched 96.5MB in 1h20m57s (19.9kB/s)
Executing RPM (-Uvh)...
warning: /var/cache/apt/archives/rpm-python_4.1.1-1.8x.fdr.1_i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 8df56d05

E: Sub-process /bin/rpm returned an error code (90)

Has anyone ran into this error before?

thanks

looks like you have a package conflict. you might want to remove libmpg123.so and give it another go.

hello,
did you run apt-get update first and are you using stable, testing or unstable?

[Schotty]

you need to remove the dep conflict. Probably wouldnt hurt to upgrade your sources and try again first off. Then if that fails remove the dep conflict.

What I also usually do is do " apt-get dist-upgrade " . Everytime you do " apt-get upgrade ", it will ONLY upgrade the packages but NOT the distro to its current updates ( which is mostly a lot in unstable and testing ).

The conflicts and stuff usually goes away after doing dist-upgrade but YMMV.

And also like PBHarris said, did you do " apt-get update " ?

Thanks everyone for the answers. Apt-get for RH 8.0 has been pretty good, but just this weird issue with XMMS, which I used apt-get to install.

So I used apt-get to remove it and did apt-get distro-upgrade and all is fine know.

thanks
