[Voyage-linux] cannot install locales

[Kenny Mayne]

Yes, I did apt-get update and No, when I run "nano" = command not found.


this is what happens when I try to get locales after update.

root at voyage:~# apt-get install locales
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree

You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 e2fsprogs : PreDepends: e2fslibs (= 1.41.12-2) but 1.41.12-4stable1 is to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).


Thanks for your help,
Kenny

Did you do: 'apt-get update; before trying to install packages?

Once locales is installed you need to run: dpkg-reconfigure locales

and set a locale, then reboot.

Are you sure nano is not installed? Have you tried to run it? (I've run into that myself -- but those are warning...)
