[Qgis-user] ubuntu 12.10 issues

[Nicholas Efremov-Kendall]

Hi Rudi,

Yes, at this point I just want to go back to a stable version. i've changed
my repos in etc/apt/sources.list to


 deb http://extras.ubuntu.com/ubuntu precise main
 deb-src http://extras.ubuntu.com/ubuntu precise main


and I still get this as an error in terminal.


 qgis : Depends: qgis-providers (= 1.8.0-1~quantal1) but
1.9.0+git20121014+2754df0~precise1 is to be installed
        Depends: qgis-common (= 1.8.0-1~quantal1) but
1.9.0+git20121015+5afd739~precise-ubuntugis1 is to be installed


So, how do I roll back to 1.8? Also, my software sources gui is broken.
