I want to install npm. I've updated everything but I can't fix the problem.   The message I get is:  Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree        Reading state information... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation:  The following packages have unmet dependencies:  npm : Depends: node-gyp (&gt;= 0.10.9) but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.   Could you help me?
After upgrading from 10.04 to 12.04 I am trying to install different packages.  For instance ia32-libs and skype (4.0).  When trying to install these, I am getting the 'Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages' error message.   Output of commands:  sudo apt-get install -f Reading package lists...

Create a hexadecimal colour based on a string with JavaScript What's better to use in PHP for appending an array member,  $array[] = $value;   or  array_push($array, $value);   ?  Though the manual says you're better off to avoid a function call, I've also read $array[] is much slower than array_push(). What are some clarifications or benchmarks?

I tried alias sbb='sudo !!', but it interprets that as a literal  !! and prints   sudo: !!: command not found   If I use double quotes, it substitutes the double bang in the string itself, so that doesn't work.  Is there any way to make this work? Or an alternative alias? ` This is something I've been curious about since starting this whole 'meta' thing a couple years back.     Let's say a user posts a feature request.   Under what circumstances is the feature-request read by staff? If staff decline to do anything (I'd guess it's some sort of triage), under what circumstances is the feature-request reevaluated by staff?     Let's say a user posts a bug.    Under what circumstances is the bug tested? What generally determines whether a verified bug is actionable? (And/or what are the criterion for deciding what to do?)     For both of the above, would it be possible to see a general-but-relatively-detailed flow for what happens to these questions?

How should I implement hook_menu()? Why is "our today's meeting" wrong? One of the answers to  question states that &quot;We shall discuss it in our today's meeting&quot;  is grammatically correct. To me, that sentence is clearly wrong. While in today's meeting is fine and in our today meeting is OKish (though at the very least clumsy), there's something about the possessive there (our today's) that makes it wrong for me. I would read that sentence as in our today's (as opposed to your today's) meeting. Similar to in our car's trunk where the our clearly modifies car and not trunk or car trunk, the our in our today's seems to be modifying today's and not meeting. So, my questions are i) is it actually grammatically wrong to say in our today's or is it just a question of usage? and ii) if it is indeed wrong, how can we explain its wrongness? Dragon souls not activating new words So if I understand correctly you can learn new words and the souls will activate these words. I just killed a dragon and when it died it looked like I absorbed the soul but it didn't unlock any of the words I have.   I noticed some dragons actually have a name so do certain dragons unlock certain words? Can newsletters take into account a user's ignored tags on that site? I have seen several questions that discuss using your "Favorite" tags to construct a newsletter.   I'm looking for a similar request - but for ignored tags.  I figure it might make sense to split this request from the "favorite" requests because it has different implementation.  Can we exclude questions on the "ignore" tags lists in the newsletter?   For example, I subscribe to the Board and Card Games newsletter.   Currently (and frequently) 6 of the 7 questions are about magic-the-gathering, a tag I have in my ignored list.     I now get a newsletter where at best 1/7 questions is interesting and worth clicking on.  Related questions about using "Favorites": Making your Windows 7 a WIFI hotspot for Android?

PS: I am in no mood to root my device. In Greek, λογικοφανής is a word that describes a person who spits out seemingly logical statements. It often has a negative connotation as it is targeted towards people who tend to fool the public with supposedly beautifully-constructed thoughts that sound convincing in our ears but are not necessarily accurate. The first word that comes to mind is deceptive, but it is not quite what I look for. Any thoughts? Why don't the Ubuntu repositories have the latest versions of software?
