Thread: apt-get install errors in clean install of 8.04

i've installed 8.04 (on freshly formatted partition). went well. main problem have whenever try install new package, error message. example,

$ sudo apt-get install samba

produces this:

reading package lists... done
building dependency tree
reading state information... done
packages not installed. may mean have
requested impossible situation or if using unstable
distribution required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of incoming.

since requested single operation extremely that
package not installable , bug report against
package should filed.
following information may resolve situation:

following packages have unmet dependencies.
samba: depends: samba-common (= 3.0.28a-1ubuntu4) 3.0.28a-1ubuntu4.8 installed
e: broken packages

ideas? apt-get update doesn't help.

i recommend installing 9.04 first step. why want install outdated version?
