Thanks!

P.S. Many folks around here are looking for a comic book reader like cbreader or comix, and an image viewer than supports slideshow capabilities. Have you been able to get anything like these running from those repositories? |
I've gotten the same error message at times, too.
I'm not sure what's going on because I'm new to Linux/Ubuntu and the variation on the Q7.
Also, I find the error messages on the Q7 to be cryptic at best.
The main point here is that what I tell you may be completely wrong and you'll have to proceed at your own risk.
That said, I went around GDebi and downloaded the files directly to the Q7 from the repository.
Then, I crossed my fingers and installed the libraries (click once on each deb file).
GDebi loaded and installed.
It worked for Flite even though I would not recommend it as the standard procedure.
Normally, GDebi should help and go out, list the packages available, and let the user select the ones to download/install.
Also, I would be sure to download to an SD card rather than the desktop because the Q7 has limited storage.
I'm new to Ubuntu and many others have better knowledge.
Please correct any errors in the above.
