    Default Webmin Upgrade Issues

    Having issues with installing update packages for Webmin 1.54 on Ubuntu Linux 9.10 VPS.

    Tried to update but get the error "webmin depends on apt-show-versions; however Package apt-show-versions is not installed."

    So I try and install "apt-show-versions" , but as I do – I get the error "The following packages have unmet dependencies: apt-show-versions: Depends: libapt-pkg-perl (>= 0.1.21) but it is not going to be installed
    E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution)."

    ...so I try and install libapt-pkg-perl, but it tells me it won't do it without apt-show-versions ....chicken egg sort of stuff...

    So – I can't install one without the other...so it would appear.

    Any help in getting me out of this circular issue would be greatly appreciated.

    I'm a newbie – (obviously!) and have spent the last 2 or 3 hours trying to sort it myself, but can't find out what to do when one dependency depends on another dependancy.

    As I said – any assistance greatly appreciated.
