In your case (and that often happens) the versions of the things you want to install are not in sync with things already installed. That is sometimes an unresolvable problem. Often the update must be done in two stages. Thr first where yoy exclude updaating a particular package and the second where you install it separately. -- Aaron Konstam <akonstam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
