At one point it wanted to remove about 200 packages, including ones
for gnome and python.
--
just a tip.
remove the sernet line in apt/sources.list. ( put # infront of the line )
apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
errors? apt-get -f install
apt-get clean && apt-get autoclean
first fix your now running system.
when done and verything is updated.
the you can try install the sernet-samba packages.
Your mixing 2 problems in 1 thing now.
